On the availability of the film[edit]

The original film website no longer exists and the Internet Archive doesn't display it. I added a link to PRI's bookstore which it seems is the only place that still carries it. It was never copyrighted officially but I believe it still falls under intellectual copyright laws. There is a six part youtube version that I added to the external links but it's commented out until someone verifies copyright or gets a release from [PRI] or [Steven Hayward].

Reception[edit]

The reception section is pretty one-sided. Was this film seen only by climate change deniers? (Who loved it, of course.) --Hob Gadling (talk) 06:45, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The reception section also opens with authoritatively describing it as "the film sharing the inconsistencies of actual events when compared to the predictions of the Gore film" before getting into the reviews, thus treating that description as if it's an established fact rather than a reviewer's opinion. — Red XIV ^(talk) 14:12, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
