Climate: The Movie
Martin Durkin’s Climate:The Movie is now released:
Climate The Movie from Martin Durkin on Vimeo.
This film exposes the climate alarm as an invented scare without any basis in science. It shows that mainstream studies and official data do not support the claim that we are witnessing an increase in extreme weather events – hurricanes, droughts, heatwaves, wildfires and all the rest. It emphatically counters the claim that current temperatures and levels of atmospheric CO2 are unusually and worryingly high. On the contrary, it is very clearly the case, as can be seen in all mainstream studies, that, compared to the last half billion years of earth’s history, both current temperatures and CO2 levels are extremely and unusually low. We are 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.
Why then, are we told, again and again, that ‘catastrophic man-made climate-change’ is an irrefutable fact? Why are we told that there is no evidence that contradicts it? 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. 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.
This is the unspoken political divide behind the climate alarm. The climate scare appeals especially to all those in the sprawling publicly-funded establishment. This includes the largely publicly-funded Western intelligentsia, for whom climate has become a moral cause. In these circles, to criticise or question the climate alarm has become is a breach of social etiquette.
The film was shot on location in the U.S., Canada, Israel, Kenya and UK.
The film includes interviews with a number of very prominent scientists, including Professor Steven Koonin (author of ‘Unsettled’, a former provost and vice-president of Caltech), Professor Dick Lindzen (formerly professor of meteorology at Harvard and MIT), Professor Will Happer (professor of physics at Princeton), Dr John Clauser (winner of the Nobel prize in Physics in 2022), Professor Nir Shaviv (Racah Institute of Physics) and other

It is an excellent film. The problem is that all those in power, in the MSM and those profiting from the scam will just ignore it (even if any of them watch it, which I doubt amny will). It needs to be seen by the wider public, but it is too complicated for most people. The next step is probably that it will be banned and deleted from YouTube.

Recommended! Unmissable! A bit over-long for my tastes and a bit irritating in parts but still brilliantly conceived and executed! I wonder whether the BBC will even acknowledge its existence…? And how it will comment if it does? Make sure, everyone, to get it to every UK voter, well before the election this year!
Why is “free market capitalism” the culprit.
To me it it left wing socialism trying to destroy capitalism and centralise control.
Capitalism is the target of the eco-loons, not the culprit.
There’s more to it.
‘Capitalism’ was Marx’s pejorative of free enterprise (“free market capitalism” is redundant).
Yes, the commies dressed as eco-loons are trying to kill freedom in the economy. But they are also trying to kill freedom in everything else. ALL freedom must go. They think it wrong for people to have choices.
“We tried freedom, but it didn’t work . . . people kept making wrong choices.”
Yes of course you are right. “Greenery” is only one of their several battle fronts. I will never forget what they did to me in 1978 as the very nearly brought down all manufacturing. Actually Thatcher’s over reaction to their attack in the long run did bring heavy and medium industry down.
Chip by chip they are wearing us away.
Dear Malcolm, Bliar lost 2x as much manufacturing as Fatch from the reduced base she left. Blame the correct people.
Yes, Blair was a Thatcherite, anti-Union and a warmonger (Iraq and N.Africa). He bought into her economics 100%.
Labour also closed more pits than Conservatives. Blair is a Trotskyite, Starmer is a Pabloite
From PwC report in 2009, much has changed since then of course.
Executive Summary
There is a widespread assumption that the final demise of manufacturing in the UK is only a matter of time. But this is simply not so. The facts tell a different story:
It is undeniably true that in the UK, the manufacturing sector is in relative decline. Over the past 30 years manufacturing output has grown more slowly than services, and the number of people employed in manufacturing has dropped steadily as productivity per employee has increased. Perhaps most seriously, Britain has
a highly negative balance of trade (total exports minus total imports) that is not sustainable.
2017 update; ‘When we talk about the decline of manufacturing, it is important to bear in mind, we only mean a relative decline. Manufacturing output has increased in real terms. To some extent, there is an inevitability that manufacturing as a share of GDP will fall, and it is not necessarily desirable or possible for a government to prevent this shift in the economy. – Just as it would be impossible to have prevented the decline in the coal industry which once employed 1 million miners.’

Free market capitalism has provided enough funds to ‘fix’ the problem and bankrupt western economies in the process. Talk about jumping under the bus.
Unfortunately the film is too clever by half, 99.999% of the CCC and politicians would never grasp that the science is not settled, nor the fact that without CO2 we are royally screwed, below 150ppm all life stops, ideally we need to be around 1000ppm.
The film concentrates on proving that the lies that are being spouted hourly are both dangerous and fit an agenda- the agenda being the biggest Ponzi scam ever, cease use of all reliable fossil fuel production/energy sourcing and use in exchange intermittent energy sources which will bring the World to a crashing stop – without reliable energy, nothing works correctly, everything from water, light, heat, fertiliser sewerage, mobility, food security to name a few will become luxuries few can afford – and the ability to afford is the agenda.
It is known as Demand Pricing and will apply to everything.
We are building a regime of oligarchs who will control the supply as a cartel, what little there is will be available but at a price, thus returning the World to pre-industrial slave/serf/servant/master, where the very limited few control the very many.
Famine will become the normal condition of the majority, and do not think to look to our various “leaders”, given what’s coming, they will quickly sell what few principles they have for the safety and shelter offered by the Few – Nett Zero is worse than Pol Pots Year 1 in that it will not just affect one small nation, but every nation Worldwide.
A Malthusian plot writ large just waiting……………..2024 World population 8billion, 2054 World population 4billion, 2084 World population 1.5billion.
Nett Zero really means Nett Zero population, with current birth rates dropping below replacement levels, introduce mass starvation and famine and within 50-60years you will put the world on the path to extinction.
But at least the planet will flourish with CO2 levels getting back to levels not seen in billions of years, expect the level to head up towards 2000+ppm.
Exactly right. I won’t live to see it. Nor indeed will six billion others!
Superb film, like all Durkin’s work. Tell all your friends!

A brilliant and convincing expose of the great climate scam. Must watch!
Excellent, but most of us commenting on Paul’s site know that CO2 is not contributing to climate change. The eco loons are too thick to understand the science outlined in the film.
What I think it lacks is an emphasis on the high level corruption of Gore, Schwab, Grantham, Soros, Miliband, Davey, Gates, Trudeau, Gummer in promulgating the Climate Change scam to make money.
I did like the end bit about Africa being denied an industrial revolution. which would lift them out of poverty, so true.
Indeed, the most shocking element of the whole scam, eugenicist, neo-colonial BS masquerading as caring environmentalism. Poor people in Africa have no access to affordable energy for cooking, mains water and light to study by. Instead they cut down the forests to make charcoal ensuring a short miserable lives for women forced to cook over dung and charcoal indoor fires.

An excellent film pitched at the common-sense layman, majoring on the obvious counter-arguments to the climate change scam that we have all been making for decades. Let’s hope it gets wide coverage among the general public and is not sidelined as was Durkin’s 2007 film “The Great Global Warming Swindle”. It is low-key on the establishment’s ulterior climate change agenda motive (authoritarian one-world government) apart from in the final couple of minutes when they introduce a few telling suggestions, including linking it to the Covid fabrications and the war against farmers.
Hi, I will watch this but can you say a bit more about the ‘covid fabrications’ you mention?
I would be careful of this Covid Fabrications scam! Try to get hold of Medcram on Youtube. It will show you what the virus is like… it is still developing. Dr Seheult is a certified medical educator. His background can be checked and he teaches remarkably well. The virus scam is deep seated in the minds of the non scientific minds of the journalism professions and is dangerous

Near the end the commentary refers to “punitive and restrictive policies carried out both in the name of climate change and Covid have sparked protests …” and the video shows a large protest with a man carrying a banner saying “Justice for Covid crimes”.
They are making the point that I have been making for nearly three years now, namely that the global establishment and their puppet politicians who have been slowly but steadily pushing their fake climate change agenda for decades suddenly in 2020 showed their psychopathic true colours when they launched their pre-planned, globally-coordinated Covid “plandemic” through which they severely damaged our economies and killed and injured tens of millions worldwide using a gain-of-function lab-engineered virus which in itself turned out to be not much worse than common flu.
Reiner Fuellmich and his expert colleagues exposed the evil Covid plandemic in their 2022 Grand Jury court of public opinion Covid-19 Crimes against Humanity model trial. For details see my own two-part summary here: https://metatron.substack.com/p/reiner-fuellmichs-grand-jury-court.
Hi, just to clarify. Are you claiming that it was the vaccine that caused 10’s of millions of deaths? Not the virus – which I think is referred to in the video as a ‘mild flu’?
It certainly seems today beyond reasonable doubt that the virus was a ‘gain-of-function’ experiment in Wuhan (that may even have had U.S. funding). This has become much clearer recently – particularly with research by the ‘Drastic’ group.
We need to ensure that every MP watches it and comments on it to the sender. I have sent it to my MP already.
We need to repeal the Climate Change Act. The most damaging piece of legislation in our history.
The Climate Change Act may ironically be the way to put a stop to this madness as I would argue it is being used in a way not intended by parliament and the government’s plan for net zero is unlawful. You don’t have to become a so called climate sceptic as even people who belief in AGW (for context I was in the green party for a time) see the whole climate political apparatus as farcical and full of grifters who have no real interest in solving (seem to oppose anything that is actually feasible) or even acknowledging potential problems.
No one honestly believes parliament intended to reduce peoples living standards include making air travel & car use the preserve of the rich & connected), ignore the duties in the electricity act – “the need to secure that all reasonable demands for electricity are met”
Using the common law understand of negligence I would argue the government’s plan for meeting targets under the Climate Change Act have to be technically feasible at scale and they can’t also contain legal fictions like pretending all the imported electricity is zero carbon & Renewable Energy Certificates.
This isn’t the case from intermittent renewables in 2024 as TW/h scale storage does not yet exist or for that matter carbon capture and storage.
But there were things that were technically feasible in 2008 at scale as far as I’m aware have not even being look at:
1 – a large scale (40GW+) replacement of coal and natural gas generating capacity with nuclear fission using existing reactor designs which France clearly demonstrated was possible
Personally I would work with the Canadians to build 50hz a few replicas of a multi unit CANDU site e.g Darlington Nuclear Generating Station but with 8 units like Bruce Nuclear Generating Station as we don’t seem to have the heavy forging capacity for pressure vessels for PWR or BWR in the UK of the scale needed(sorting that may slow things). Its an established design where the bugs have being worked out and the skills need in refurbishments in Canada are similar to what a new build project would need so of the options the UK has its likely to be built on time and budget.
2 – I would have prohibited the demolition of all the old coal, oil and gas power station as they could clearly be repowered like many old coal power station in the post war period were to oil with small modular heat reactors based on what we use for nuclear submarines in the short term (as we have clear operating experience with them) but with an long term aim to make liquid fluoride thorium reactors work.
3 – Taking what climate scientist have told us all Co2 matters equally it shouldn’t matter if it is from biomass burning or fossil fuel (which is essentially older biomass) if you can claim biomass burning is ok because supposedly the trees are replaced (even if it took decades to grow and absorb it Co2) then there is no reason you can’t do the same with fossil fuels especially if we look at the potential emissions e.g. methane from decaying vegetation in clear cut forrest. You could grow fast growing biomass somewhere semi arid with irrigation or in the sea that would remove Co2 a lot quicker than trees – I’m sure we could look into a genetically modified crop to specifically do this if we can’t find any exist one that will work here.
4 – looking at ways for new building to affordably meet the passivhaus standard
5 – natural gas heat pumps
6 – quadricycles
7 – reintroducing trolleybuses
8 – nuclear marine propulsion
Why do we have 28+ GWe wind capacity & are the direct and indirect subsidies for renewables value for money or unnecessarily regressive to people on low incomes compared to the alternatives? Why are subsidise linked to generation when helping with the capital cost would be a more rational approach for the tax payer (if we must build them). Also if the computer models on climate change are accurate in future there would likely be less wind at speeds suitable for wind turbines and our winters may get colder.
We already know about the Renewable Heat Incentive or Cash for Ash scandal in Northern Ireland – I want to know if the people who set up net metering & the solar PV feed in tariff personally benefited from it especially as we have people who have done well from subsidy payments who are now donating to probably all the main political parties which feels like Racketeering – we have organisations getting public funds (I include subsidies) then making donations to political parties to influence them to pay the, not saying charities should not be allowed to lobby e.g a charity that provides a service like a hospice or citizens advice to keep or increase its funding but it should not feel like politicians scratching their mates back especially if it increases the donor’s personal wealth & the donor’s personal wealth matches the total paid in subsidies to business they are linked to.
CO2 is plant food we need more of it. We need to frack as if there were no tomorrow (there almost isn’t). We also need SMRs of course. All that would help to free us from Wahhabists and other malevolent actors.

I agree, excellent film but the blob won’t watch it as they don’t care. Time for a public display against the greedy, ignorant green zealots.
Matt,check out, “Climate change – The Movie”, film made by Chris Durkin.

I guess that this won’t be mentioned on the BBC News, but possibly GB News can pick it up and broadcast it. They ought also to publicise the BBC South Sudan Weather report to exemplify the truly corrupt and fake news that the regulator accepts as fine.
Using the Search button on the BBC News website finds nothing of relevance on “Climate: The Movie” and finds just one negative hit on “Durkin”. At least a search on the film name on DuckDuckGo comes up with a large number of hits.
send to all you know and those you dont
The Australian government should hang its head in shame at the sacking of the late Dr.Robert Carter and Dr.Peter Ridd for telling the truth about the Great Barrier Reef
Will it make a difference? Will the ‘Climate Cultists’ go and watch it?
Thanks for sharing this grown up film. It deserves wide circulation.
Brilliant film. Thank you Paul – and Martin Durkin.
Let us try and get this seen by as many people as is possible. I shall be doing my bit.
The propagandists have done their work well. Whilst Durkin is to be applauded, until dissenting pieces appear on the MSM, the general public will not be converted.

I watched this right through. It should be circulated to every MP and everyone
Why are we constantly told lies about the climate … search for Lewandowsky’s paper on the Big Lie (I forget the title). It goes into how to tell a lie and then even if it is forced to be retracted, the public only remember the lie.
Now remember Lewandowsky’s been on the climate nudge group … and presumably the covid nudge group that repeatedly the same Big Lie tactics.
It’s deliberate calculated lying.
I do intend to watch it but I get the impression it will be like standing in the CofE Synod telling the Bishops that God does not exist. Nonetheless, I intend to KBO.
Gosh Harry “KBO” I haven’t heard that one since my grandfather died!
Hi, Ray! Well, I just finished watching the film. What a great documentary – and so professionally put together.
To my mind, THIS is the inconvenient truth that should be shown to our young. But it won’t: the participants in the film vividly explain how the alarmist governments have controlled the narrative. To my mind the only way this will end will be…not pretty.
Keep well.

Thanks, I will watch
The more I think about the film’s message – that pretty-much all our society and its support structures are predicated on belief in man-made climate change – the more I realise that the biggest man-made thing in existence is a new religion, one with its own devil (CO2) and, as yet, an unknown God (but one most definitely modelled on ‘Big Brother’). I have even heard talk of some authorities almost making it near-heresy to deny the new God’s existence. This concern I am feeling is not helped when, in reading the comments on WUWT for the same post, there is one, very persistent commenter who seems to be vying for the position of the new Pope: E Schaffer. With disciples like him/her I truly worry about man’s rationality.
Happy Easter!
This video has now been mysteriously erased. Unavailable. ‘Does not exist.’!!! What has happened to the free exchange of information. It kind of proves the point of what the video was about. Sinister beyond.
Vanished down the rabbit hole!
Has this video been taken down or is my ISP (BT) blocking it? I am seeing a black box with “Sorry this video does not exist” here as well as WUWT and climatethemovie.net. Tried Opera & Firefox with the same result.
It worked yesterday.
It’s been blocked on my browser too.
Looks like Big Brother is clamping down!
Still available on YouTube:

Fantastic and comprehensive. Where can I download a copy?
I have been trying to spread this around as widely as possible. It should be sent to all MPs, UK and US newspapers, US senators and politicians-especially as itâs widely reported today that Labour want to spend billions on enormous floating turbines (mostly made in China as has been pointed out) in order to solve a non-existent problem
The movie is still available on line
