"British propagandist Martin Durkin is still trying to fool the world with bogus claims and fake graphs to say the most reputable scientific organisations, including NASA, the Met Office and Royal Society, are all wrong on anthropogenic climate change.
The 80-minute film, released on 23 March, is almost a rerun of his discredited movie The Great Global Warming Swindle. [...] That film falsely suggested that changes in solar activity, not greenhouse gases, are responsible for global warming.
Following the Channel 4 broadcast, Durkin, who studied economic history at LSE, was quickly engulfed in controversy as experts pointed out that his film was riddled with falsehoods and amounted to little more than propaganda.
Climate: The Movie recycles many of the same falsehoods that featured in The Great Global Warming Swindle. But many independent organisations and fact-checkers have already debunked the many bogus claims that appear throughout the film. Meta's third-party fact-checking partners Science Feedback and AFP , along with Skeptical Science , have all identified a long list of inaccurate and misleading arguments that lie at the heart of Durkin's ridiculous rant."
