BBC Panorama:
Global Warming - Bush's Climate Of Fear

This documentary investigates allegations that American climate scientists are censored by the Bush administration and that the administration systematically lies to the American public.
The documentary features some very important names such as the head of NASA, the head of NOAA, the former head of the World Bank's science comittee and White House whistleblowers.
They all claim that the American people are deliberately misled, but this is perhaps the first time that so many important and credible figures appear on the same platform.

There is no way in hell this documentary will ever be shown in America.

-----------------------------------------------

I've posted this after the success of the "Global Dimming" videos.
If this video gets enough positive response and enough people want it, I'll post the full documentary.

5/5 for BBC broaadcasting truth. You might as well go ahead and upload the rest Mungo.

and while I'm at it, a 1/5 for all those voting 1/5 without watching this, because you little bush monkey lovers don't want to hear that truth.

Here's to hoping that all you little neo-cons who don't believe the ozone layer is more important than filling up the gas tank of your new SUV, get melanoma skin cancer and die. painfully.

^@darthmaximillian - "Thank you"

Thanks darth. Personally, I try not to get too upset with the "Bush monkeys" - they know not what they do. - Instead, I try to be polite and offer them videos like this one.

The reason the "Bush Monkeys" don't understand is because in America they get distorted media. Every country in the world knows about climate change. And every government in the world knows about climate change. - The only exception is the present White House administration.

The reason we have "Bush Monkeys" is because they aren't getting the BASIC SCIENCE that the rest of the world gets. - That's why I'm so patient. The other day I had some guy telling me global warming was caused by magnetic fields rather than green house gasses. - He's wrong. But I think it's better to try and offer a sensible real-science alternative than to explode in his face and polarize the debate.

I'm not so sure about all this environmental alarmism. I just read the Michael Crichton book, state of fear, which deals with this topic and cites a lot of information that disputes 'global warming' as a phenomena. I checked the resources, and hence the scientist it cites and, well, I used to think differently about this whole issue than I now do. Even the Al Gore documentary, 'an inconvenient truth', doesn't worry me as much as it might have done, not so long ago. But saying that I don't buy into this whole global warming affair, doesn't mean I'm against minimising, if not, eradicating pollution and detrimental actions by humans on our environment.

That viewpoint is perfectly understandable. Science is a continually evolving process of questioning what we think we understand and continually revising what we believe to be fact.

However, trivializing this issue to mere politics and saying that environmentalists are being "Alarmists" is both condescending and obtuse. The problems facing our environment are some of the most important issues we face today. To minimalize the evidence pointing to global warming, or the evidence that refutes it, and say that it is some sort of made up "liberal" or "Enviro-whacko" issue is absolutely preposterous. But that is exactly what is being done by not only the American governement and the Bush administration through their echo boxes at Fox news, and the mainstream media, but by the average citizen who has no scientific background what so ever, but who will accept whatever their goverrnment tells them as "fact."

I don't mind people that question the evidence of global warming or global dimming, but to flat out deny the evidence of it happening all together is astoundingly ignorant.

This planet is our home, and people that do not understand that doing our damndest to ensure that we human beings as a species will always have this earth as our home, are really doing themselves and everyone else a horrible disservice.

Personally I would like to know that I am not createing a problem that future generations will look back at and blame on my own ignorance or unwillingness to change an obviously bad course of habitual behavior.

It is really that simple.

It is beyond me that people can be so ignorant about the environment and how much it is taken advantage of. What good is it to mislead the public on such an important matter? It's not like we can pack our shit up and move to another planet. Ignorance is bliss until it's too late.

Full documentary please.

Suppressing this sort of information is beyond disgusting. The american people should not have to rely on the internet to get both sides of the story. The situation is made worse still when respectable academics cannot get their voices heard after long scientific study.

Niether of these guys got sacked. Hanson was threatened with being sacked if he spoke out on climate change - he went public with the story and his bosses backed down. He is still the top climate scientist at NASA.
The editor claims he quit his post out of disgust for the current White House policy to decieve the public.
