A CBC production directed by Lars Mortensen argues that the scientific consensus on human-caused climate change is overstated, and lines up researchers skeptical of that consensus to make the case. David Legates of the University of Delaware, John Christy of the University of Alabama in Huntsville, Sallie Baliunas of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Nils-Axel Morner of Stockholm University, and Jorgen Peder Steffensen of the Niels Bohr Institute appear on camera to walk through solar radiation, ocean currents, and volcanic activity as drivers of climate variation, and to point to past warming and cooling periods that predate industrial emissions. The film questions the reliability of computer climate models and the temperature record used to project future warming, and revisits earlier predictions it says failed to materialize. It frames the debate as scientist against scientist rather than settled fact against denial, building its argument entirely from interview testimony rather than independent data gathering or field footage.
