Stream of Conscience: Not Evil Just Wrong to Stream Live, for Free, Over Internet This Sunday. Here’s the trailer video:
In this movie, you’ll see Dr. James Hansen refuse to say Steve McIntyre’s name, among other things.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 16 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Fewer than 50 hours from the 8 pm EDT Sunday launch of Not Evil Just Wrong — set to be the world’s largest simultaneous film premiere party in history — the documentary’s co-creators today announced options for people across the globe to watch it FREE over the internet. Live links follow.
In addition to the thousands of individual DVD/theatrical premiere parties being hosted across the nation (map available here), the documentary will also be streamed live over the Internet — accessed for free by anyone who visits the site. Not Evil Just Wrong will also be available on several Internet domains to ensure bandwidth sufficient to handle the expected massive interest in the documentary.
The popular website Big Hollywood (http://bighollywood.breitbart.com) has announced its intention to live-stream the documentary over its site, as has the American Family Association (http://action.afa.net). Other options are expected to follow.
“Technology has always been anathematic to those who dominate the modern environmental movement,” said Ann McElhinney, co-director of Not Evil Just Wrong. “And after this Sunday, perhaps we’ll have a clearer idea why. Three years ago, immediately following the release of Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth, we simply wouldn’t have had the capability to reach this many people short of equipping each and every one of them with his own DVD. Today, we have that technology, and thanks to Andrew Breitbart and the folks at AFA, millions of additional people will have the chance to see this film, consider its message, and be inspired to act as a result.”
Visitors to the live-streaming sites will also be able to watch (and, through social networking sites, even participate in) the panel discussion scheduled for immediately after the film, featuring experts such as world-renowned new media pioneer and ACORN buster Andrew Breitbart and the inestimable John Fund of the Wall Street Journal — among several others who will be on hand to moderate the panel and answer questions submitted by the worldwide audience.
Relevant links and information are included below.
What: World premiere of Not Evil Just Wrong
When: Sunday, 8:00 PM EDT; panel discussion with Andrew Breitbart, John Fund, Prof. Richard Lindzen, and Prof. Don Roberts Emeritus to immediately follow.
Where: One of hundreds of premiere sites across the country (and thousands around the world)

I said use our brains, not our brawn.
Brawn is what the green movement is using together with manipulating the herd instincts of humans.
Brains lead us to graded conservation measures and teaching fishing rather than offering fish to the hungry. In general, the first three solutions to the problem of overpopulation and scarcity of resources is, 1) education 2) education 3) education.
I would add that for the third world education of women should come first. An educated woman always finds a way to control her fertility.

“And then when the whole beast finally collapses,what will happen? Will we be over-run by gun-slinging cowboy libertarianism?”
Yes, I hope so. It will be like in the 60ies or 70ies, where you could be free. You could go to a gun store and buy a machine gun (in my country). Great. It was safe in our streets, not like now. You could buy LSD (until end of the 60ies). Great. You could go fishing without making a test before. Great. You could ride your bike without a helmet. Great.
Etc. etc.
Now you can’t breathe anymore because of all the laws. Because of people like you. Thank you very much.
If you have a problem with freedom, visit a specialist and he will give you a prescription for Paroxeton, Buspar or Temesta.
Or, even better: Go to North Korea

Juraj V: You wrote, “Bob, check the Maunder minimum period…0.1% might be correct, but there are possible changes in albedo, limiting the sun energy reaching the surface.”
If “there are possible changes in albedo, limiting the sun energy reaching the surface” then the Maunder Minumum cannot be the result solely of the variation in TSI, unless you’re implying that the change in TSI caused the change in albedo.
Currently the yuan is pegged to the dollar. But there is a concerted effort to displace the dollar as the world’s reserve currency.
Part of the interest in replacing the dollar is due to concern over the U.S. government’s failure to support a strong currency. But that is not the entire reason.
There is also a concurrent push to establish a world court with jurisdiction over all UN countries and their citizens. That would give the UN the authority to prosecute financial crimes such as counterfeiting, fraud, hiding assets, possessing gold, etc.
There is no doubt that that new authority will be abused for political purposes. [Note that the EU has already repeatedly fined Microsoft hundreds of $millions on trumped-up accusations, such as the ridiculous charge Microsoft didn’t load competitors’ operating systems onto its own software. That ravenous greed by abusive EU officials will only escalate — and it will be nothing compared with what the thoroughly corrupt UN has planned.]
Those who believe that the UN is our friend, or that it is not a criminal organization, are among the most deluded people on the planet. Giving that corrupt organization legal authority over American citizens amounts to handing the UN our collective heads on a platter.
Unfortunately, the current Administration and Congress prefer to abjectly bow down to foreign potentates and dictators, and go on world apology tours, rather than represent the interests of American citizens.
“If our brains do not regulate our collective behavior, we will end up as one more extinct species”
Tom’s comments are sensational. Nowhere in the history of human kind have we been endangered.
This is not the problem, hegemony is.
I don’t think the current rise in socialist principles and environmentalism is anything new. History is plagued with such power struggles and the reason for this is dishonesty. I’ve said it many times before: all bad things are done in the name of good. How is humanity supposed to progress when it possesses an amnesia which prevents itself from recognizing new iterations of the same bad behaviour.
It was never a question of the human species dying out. It’s a matter of changing the balance of power by undermining capitalism and punishing the western world.
The left are disingenuous about their motives. They hide behind philanthropy and good deeds. Isn’t that what all subverters do?

“globally temperatures have risen this year, primarily in response to the transition from a La Nina state to an El Nino one. Here’s a graph that includes the the most recent TLT (temperature of the lower troposphere) anomalies from Roy Spencer posted here at WUWT:

…What you fail to mention is that the average temperature only went up 0.42ºC and it has since fallen to just over 0.2ºC and is still falling, so average temperatures are still falling, not rising.

If you want a more active role in the so-called “global warming” debate you can join The Global Warming Petition Project
Purpose of the Petition
The purpose of the Petition Project is to demonstrate that the claim of “settled science” and an overwhelming “consensus” in favor of the hypothesis of human-caused global warming and consequent climatological damage is wrong. No such consensus or settled science exists. As indicated by the petition text and signatory list, a very large number of American scientists reject this hypothesis.
Publicists at the United Nations, Mr. Al Gore, and their supporters frequently claim that only a few “skeptics” remain – skeptics who are still unconvinced about the existence of a catastrophic human-caused global warming emergency.
It is evident that 31,478 Americans with university degrees in science – including 9,029 PhDs, are not “a few.” Moreover, from the clear and strong petition statement that they have signed, it is evident that these 31,478 American scientists are not “skeptics.”
These scientists are instead convinced that the human-caused global warming hypothesis is without scientific validity and that government action on the basis of this hypothesis would unnecessarily and counter- productively damage both human prosperity and the natural environment of the Earth.
31,478 American scientists have signed this petition, including 9,029 with PhDs

I don’t know whether you followed the post on “top ten reasons…” a few days ago. A “contributor” called eye8eon posted some totally worthless comment and Anthony kindly provided a link to his blog site. Curious about such people I tried to engage in a dialogue, and extracted some interesting responses from him, and I almost felt sorry for him until he concluded with:”So my views will never be changed, ever…certainly not by someones comments, even well formed arguments, because this guys not for turning…….” I am guessing this self-proclaimed anarchist was one of the protestors at the power station that you refer to, as his blog is anti EON.
Irrational, illogical, inflexible and dangerous spring to mind, and this seems to be representative of the level of debate perpetrated by the vast majority of warmists.
Inconvenient Questions to Gore Get the Mic Cut Off
From PHELIM MCALEER
Last week at the Society of Environmental Journalists conference in Wisconsin, former Vice President Al Gore took questions from journalists about global warming for the first time in years. I attended to ask him about factual errors in his movie, “An Inconvenient Truth.”
You wouldn’t know it from the sparse media coverage, but the British High Court found so many errors in Gore’s movie in 2007 that British schools no longer can show the film without the equivalent of a health warning.
I asked Gore if he intends to correct the record. He dodged the question, and the so-called “reporters” defended his right to be evasive by shutting off my mic.
The encounter was disappointing but not surprising. I served years of hard time as a liberal journalist in Europe and learned that covering the environmental beat meant toeing the line of extremism — no inconvenient questions allowed.
But it is now time for journalists, and the consumers and businesses that will pay the ultimate price, to start questioning the conventional wisdom about global warming and exposing its true cost. If alarmists like Al Gore get their way, millions of American families will watch as their dreams of a prosperous and pleasant future disappear.
The evidence of environmentalism run amok abounds in Europe. Spain believed the spin that environmental regulation can create “green jobs” and boost the economy. Now the country has 18% unemployment. Britain could suffer blackouts because of policies that require the country to replace coal with fuels like solar and wind power that aren’t readily available or reliable.
Unfortunately for Americans, many of the lawmakers who represent them in Congress seem unwilling to learn from Europe’s mistakes.
The Senate is now considering a bill that Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., co-authored to create a European-style “cap and trade” system for carbon dioxide emissions, and he just won the endorsement of a key swing senator. International pressure on the United States to adopt such legislation also will increase in December at climate talks in Copenhagen.
That’s bad news for taxpayers. The Obama administration reluctantly admitted last month that cap-and-trade would cost the average American family $1,761 a year.
That is a rosy prediction. A Heritage Foundation analysis puts the cost at an average of $2,979 a year and as much as $4,600 a year by 2035. Jobs will disappear, energy prices will skyrocket, and the American Dream will become an unattainable fantasy for many.

Hit the nail on the head, but there are 3 streams of influence that result from reduced activity. TSI is one, then magnetic with UV following (UV varies more than TSI). TSI being the minor contributor, with the albedo players (the rest) scoring highest.
I’ll be watching the video, but I’m not very encouraged by the promo. I don’t think it will advance the sum of our knowledge very much. Having a laugh at the major progenitors of global warming/climate change will be a small payback for all the slurs and smears that have been directed at people like us, but I think our time is better spent trying to figure out what is driving the climate. I think we’re a lot closer to understanding than the global warming brigade, but we don’t know for certain either.

“As Dr. Svalgaard reminds us, the variations in the solar cycle (min to max, or max to min) can only be responsible for a change in global temperature of 0.07 deg C.”
Please elaborate; with apologies to Dr. Svalgaad I missed his reminder.
Robinson, very much agree.
Any terrorist group is usually a combination of two or three things: a lust for power; a low moral outlook which prefers violence; and tragically, an absolute truth conviction.
We see it with extreme animal rights activists, who think nothing of setting fire to university buildings for the sake of their cause.
Fortunately, the majority of greens are actually ethically good people, people who genuinely care, and I really mean that.
However, this has become combined with recent fashionable notions that science and technology are cold and heartless, and reason alone is not “wisdom”, so they turn instead to their feelings and intuitions (combined also with what’s partly a decades old Feminist agenda against so-called masculine hierarchy, reason, achievement, competitiveness.)
I think as the greens are challenged on the science, and various scientific hypothesis come to be rejected, we’ll start to see that the greenies are not actually that bothered about science anyway and never were. Remember, in PoMo greenie culture, science is just a “likely story” created in a cultural context of social power structures–or at least, that’s what a good PoMo greenie would feel deep down. If anything, “The Science” is just there to convince the poor saps who still believe in science as objectively disclosing real truths. PoMo doesn’t believe in grand narratives, and so a theory like AGW would be the first to be rejected. But strangely the PoMos turn a blind eye to it, and actually hold up placards insisting it is all Peer Reviewed by Authority. Deep down, PoMo greenies abhor all authorities. They’re always banging on about alternative medicine, alternative health, alternative spirituality–why so keen suddenly on extolling the virtues of mainstream scientific authority??
I’ve chatted to my greenie friends, and when we get to the point where they accept that the ice caps are not melting, the positive water feedback isn’t there, the ice isn’t thinning, the oil isn’t about to run out, the seas aren’t rising, the hurricanes aren’t increasing, the temperatures haven’t gone up, AGW isn’t the only theory in town, and alternative hypothesis exist, and so on–when we get to the point where they can accept all of that, then my greenie friends will say,
“but wouldn’t it be better if everything just slowed down, if the rat race just stopped—we don’t need more progress—wouldn’t it be better if we all regained a sense of community?”
Well, what if they’d said that in 1800, would you give up everything you have today? Would your great great grandchildren be happy that you decided to forego all progress for the next century?
I think if you really want to speak to the core greenies, you have to talk about these issues that matter to them personally—community, a sense of meaning in life, a sense of belonging, and so on.
The trouble with global warming is that it resonates all too well with these deep feelings of wanting to belong in a global chaotic complex world, which is why the only solutions they’ll accept are the ones that are about slowing down (cars powered by windmills, how friken’ slow is that?) and nothing that is about speeding things up, like nuclear power, genetic engineering, nanotech, and so on.
In a sense, global warming has become religious because the greenies, having rejected traditional religions, have been left with a void in their lives, and Dawkings is not the answer to that void—so they need a new religion—they need meaning, purpose, connection.

Not dream or a fantasy, just a sick joke.

And….no “official” theory has been able of forecasting the solar activity, they have proved totally wrong and, like it or not, up to now the closest has been Landscheidt´s.
As we are living through “interesting times” perhaps one of the changes to be seen yet it is a change in cosmological principles, now totally entangled in strings, sucked by black holes, twisted in space curvatures and interred under dark matter.
anna v (06:30:21) : “Smokey and Tom, I said use our brains, not our brawn.”
In theory I totally agree, unfortunately the world is ruled by brawn. We must “outbrawn” them and then continue to be vigilant as the thieves of freedom are always on the prowl.
While the global temp can change via solar cycle to a presently known 0.07 deg C, apparently, that’s all it takes. Mechanism viewed dimly at best, there is no remote control to play with.
If the climate is normally a zero-sum game, then skewing it 0.07 deg C does what?
1.) causes it to move 0.07 C in the given change direction.
2.) causes it to stair-step swing a pendulum in both directions
3.) causes it to stair-step swing a pendulum in the given direction by the law of diminishing returns until the sine heads the other way?
If there is a normal climactic diurnal, what is it?
Is the global diurnal change the issue, or is it really the regional diurnal where the rubber hits the road?
Is the climactic diurnal subject to amplification (multiply or divide) or is it linear (additive/subtractive)?
The way things are shaping up right now, it would appear the growing season is the endangered species, not Polar Bears.
Wasn’t the Great Global Warming Swindle good enough. Judging from the trailer it is more of the same.
There are to classes of people to examine here. The world will always be the resident address of scientists with bias on the one hand, and under-educated folks, who’s scientific knowledge is entirely based on anecdotal observations, on the other. The narrow middle field is narrow indeed. Here stand the scientists, who question every conclusion and paradigm, shoulder to shoulder with the common folk who have shed their dimly lit observations of the natural world and go beyond to educate themselves on the true scientific method.
The two versions of the movie examining climate change may very well represent the the first class. A blog such as this one, devoid of slick production and film editing, seems representative of that narrow middle ground.
And then there are the truly stupid people who don’t know the difference between “to” and “two”.
Is it a joke permitted?. Here it goes: Have you noticed how charming a smile the prophet has?…Not so happy, see?
“If our brains do not regulate our collective behavior, we will end up as one more extinct species . “
The problem is that a few self-styled elites are doing the regulating. The solution is radical decentralization so we will not be at the mercy of a single failure point. We must agree to disagree or we will merely build a structure that though meant for good shall result in great evil.

Oh, sorry. Quote was from Anna V

I hear the folks who complain about the production techniques in this movie trailer. In my many years in television, I’ve seen many of the same techniques employed to hold the interest of the masses.
The movie itself, of which I have a DVD copy has more substance, but also some of the same techniques employed. It is certainly no worse than some of the others we’ve seen so far. This is why I have not been promoting it on WUWT until now. If there had not been a free web streaming, I probably would have passed it over just like I’ve done with the “Age of Stupid”.
On the plus side, this movie is doing something that the recent “Age of Stupid” did not, and that’s make a world premiere done in the comfort of your home or at showings without flying in the elite jet set for photo ops, in hypocritical contrast to the movie premise.
