Climate change movie a swindle

A grubby 2007 film made by a bunch of British film-makers named “The Great Warming Swindle“, has provided a great deal of fuel to the global warming denialist mob. One thing we know is that these denialists are not open to reasonable argument, let alone actual evidence. So of course the careful systematic debunking of all the claims made in the movie would just be dismissed as part of some mysterious conspiracy. A few changes were made to the original movie in response to scientific criticism, but the central message remains.

Now environmentalist Peter Sinclair has put together a presentation which shows how the data was distorted in the movie. And when you see how inconvenient data was simply left out, it smacks of deliberate fraud.
