It's convincing......but so is the counter-film.....The Great Global Warming Swindle...........I just don't know what to believe.........it seems a lot of scientists feel they have to go along with pollution-caused global warming.

Yes, I found it convincing. I think the counter movie was sponsored by oil companies with a vested interest in saying we are not causing global warming.

Its way to easy to convince people with a movie for anything. Look at loose change or even JFK for example. If you believe in global warming(or humans as the cause of global warming) it should be because of the scientific consensus.
