About Climate: the movie

Climate: The Movie is the second climate documentary made by the British filmmaker Martin Durkin. It is the sequel of his excellent 2007 documentary The Great Global Warming Swindle. Climate: The Movie was released in March 2024 and made freely available online. The documentary was produced (and financed) by Tom Nelson, a podcaster who has been deeply examining the climate debate for the last two decades. The Clintel Foundation has been asked by Nelson and Durkin to help with the promotion and distribution of the film.

This film exposes the climate alarm as an invented scare without any basis in science. It shows that official data do not support the claim that we are witnessing an increase in extreme weather events – hurricanes, droughts, heatwaves and wildfires.
It emphatically counters the claim that current temperatures and levels of atmospheric CO₂ are unusually and worryingly high. On the contrary, compared to the last half billion years of earth’s history, both current temperatures and CO₂ levels are unusually low. The earth is currently in an ice age. It also shows that there is no evidence that changing levels of CO₂ (it has changed many times) has ever ‘driven’ climate change in the past.

But there is a consensus…

Why are we told that there is no evidence that contradicts the climate alarm? Why are we told that anyone who questions ‘climate chaos’ is a ‘flat-earther’ and a ‘science-denier’?

The film explores the nature of the consensus behind climate change. It describes the origins of the climate funding bandwagon, and the rise of the trillion-dollar climate industry. It describes the hundreds of thousands of jobs that depend on the climate crisis. It explains the enormous pressure on scientists and others not to question the climate alarm: the withdrawal of funds, rejection by science journals, social ostracism.

But the climate alarm is much more than a funding and jobs bandwagon. The film explores the politics of climate change. From the beginning, the climate scare was political. The culprit was free-market industrial capitalism. The solution was higher taxes and more regulation. From the start, the climate alarm appealed to, and has been adopted and promoted by, those groups who favour bigger government.

Who appears in the film?
