I came across this video recently whilst looking into the so-called Global Warming/Carbon Crisis following all the hullabaloo after the Copenhagen debacle.
It shocked me.
Are we actually living in a fascist state? Did the Nazis win the 39-45 war? Has everything predicted and illustrated by Orwell and Kafka come to light but hidden in plain sight?
If you care one dot about the concept of free speech, this should frighten the living shit out of you:
I’ve just come across this guy Phelim McAleer – seems like a decent citizen to me. Whether we agree with his views or not should not detract from the fact that he has a right to ask questions, and a right to his views which seem, to me in this case at least, simply to get Al Gore to clarify the fundamental errors identified by the British High Court in his film, “An Inconvenient Truth”. Especially as this film is being shown in schools to our children!
Nothing should be presented as fact like this (although that’s never stopped the religious indoctrination I witness at the nativity plays I am obliged to attend every year).
I watched that film about three years ago and it scared the bejesus out of me.
I’m starting to think that was it’s intention. Another tactic designed to keep us all like rabbits in headlights, along with wars on terror, swine flu, recession – the never ending list of nonsense designed to get us all distracted from massive changes in legislation that effect our rights as human beings on this Earth.
Anyone else getting fed up with them?

There’s a view developing that climate change is a conspiracy developed by the powerful – and what are referred to as the eco-fascists – to distract us from having some sort of real democracy. Whether Al Gore didn’t entirely check his facts when making the film, whether some scientists didn’t like it when their data didn’t entirely match with what they thought it would the fact remains that the earth is heating up. You need to look at the overall picture, not small parts.
And yes the rich and famous have people to protect them, idiot yes men – it doesn’t mean it’s the death of journalism when one guy is stopped from speaking. There are far, far more dangerous things happening – like the development of a total surveillance state, particularly here in Britain.
As to what this guy is saying about polar bears and their population. Actually go and read what those who study polar bears are saying. A substantially shrinking ice cap is going to affect their habitat. Read this from http://www.polarbearsinternational.org/ask-the-experts/population/
Today’s polar bears are facing the rapid loss of the sea-ice habitat that they rely on to hunt, breed, and, in some cases, to den. Last summer alone, the melt-off in the Arctic was equal to the size of Alaska, Texas, and the state of Washington combined—a shrinkage that was not predicted to happen until 2040. The loss of Arctic sea ice has resulted in a shorter hunting season for the bears, which has led to a scientifically documented decline in the best-studied population, Western Hudson Bay, and predictions of decline in the second best-studied population, the Southern Beaufort Sea.
Both populations are considered representative of what will likely occur in other polar bear populations should these warming trends continue. The Western Hudson Bay population has dropped by 22% since 1987. The Southern Beaufort Sea bears are showing the same signs of stress the Western Hudson Bay bears did before they crashed, including smaller adults and fewer yearling bears.
At the most recent meeting of the IUCN Polar Bear Specialist Group (Copenhagen, 2009), scientists reported that of the 19 subpopulations of polar bears, eight are declining, three are stable, one is increasing, and seven have insufficient data on which to base a decision. (The number of declining populations has increased from five at the group’s 2005 meeting.)
Phelim McAleer is a global warming sceptic – a denier who is funded by the right and big business.
I’d regard that particular part of the question by Phelim McAleer as less than genuine, because the answer is much more complex.
