the two main (pseudo)scientists on the programme will be Professor Paul Reiter whose Annapolis Centre for Science-Based Public Policy has received $763,500 in funding from ExxonMobil to play down the human contribution to global warming, and Professor Ian Clark whose Fraser Institute has received $120,000 from ExxonMobil.
Nigel Calder is introduced as the ex-editor of New Scientist (he’s 75, and edited new scientist briefly between the ages of 31 and 35, shortly after its launch).
Piers Corbyn
The program said his predictions on the weather are consistently more accurate than the Met office. As far as I know, from reading around him a year or so ago, this is entirely incorrect, but I would welcome evidence to the contrary.
It’s made by Martin Durkin. In 1997 he made a series called Against Nature for Channel 4. It targeted environmentalists, and presented them as ‘the new enemy of science’ and comparable to the Nazis. They were responsible for the deprivation and death of millions in the Third World.
Carl Wunsch, one of the scientists featured in the programme, has said that he was "completely misrepresented" in the film and had been "totally misled" when he agreed to be interviewed.

As someone with a biology degree and background and an occasional bird watcher, I'm a firm believer in global warming being increased by human activity. I also believe there's other life and other civilizations out there, but I don't believe they visit us.
I'm Pagan (nominally) in my beliefs.

Great that they directed me to that video because it has illuminated me on why some of these people think the way they do on this issue -- but too bad it's based on "Big Corporation' propaganda. I was hoping to find more valid evidence in support of their claims but this video is definitely not the place to find it.

Thanks Long Lance for your comments. So why are only the skeptics of Global Warming posting here in this thread when it appears that the majority DO believe that it's main culprit is man-made?
