DOOMSDAY CALLED OFF
An investigative one hour documentary testing the credibility of future climate scenarios
We humans stand accused of having set off a global climate catastrophe by increasing the amount of CO 2 in the atmosphere. Now serious criticism has arisen from a number of heavyweight independent scientists.
Doomsday Called Off tells a story of climate variability that is not catastrophic. The secrets of past climate are unfolded on the Greenland ice sheet. We visit the Maldives to test if they will become flooded in the near future. In Atlanta we experience how hot cities disturb local climate. And satellites orbiting the globe are bringing a message of hardly any warming at all.
The argument is that most of the climatic change we have seen is due to natural variations. This story presents a series of unbiased scientists as our witnesses.
The story is directed and produced by award winning director Lars Mortensen.
