00:00:00.000 Climate change has huge costs now.
00:00:01.500 I have no time for folks who are like,
00:00:04.260 we shouldn't take action.
00:00:05.700 The loss of human civilization
00:00:07.600 is not a far-fetched threat.
00:00:09.760 The facts around climate change
00:00:11.140 are fairly well established.
00:00:13.440 It's not a debate.
00:00:14.500 You have stolen my dreams and my childhood
00:00:17.760 with your empty words.
00:00:19.660 How dare you?
00:00:21.420 When it comes to the environment and climate change,
00:00:23.820 it feels like we're constantly being lectured
00:00:25.820 by journalists, politicians, and activists.
00:00:28.480 We're told that our way of life is unsustainable,
00:00:30.920 that we only have a few years to act,
00:00:32.680 and that we're facing an existential crisis,
00:00:35.340 not just as a country, but as a species and a planet.
00:00:38.680 We're told that the science is settled,
00:00:40.300 that any dissident thinking is akin to Holocaust denial.
00:00:44.700 It goes something like this.
00:00:46.720 The Earth's temperature is rapidly rising.
00:00:49.160 This is caused by human activity,
00:00:51.220 namely the burning of fossil fuels
00:00:52.980 which produce carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
00:00:55.860 The solution, therefore, must be to stop producing CO2.
00:01:00.320 Not to try to mitigate the damage,
00:01:02.200 adapt to our changing surroundings,
00:01:04.140 or create the economic conditions
00:01:05.760 to allow scientists and innovators
00:01:07.540 to do what they do best and start solving the problem.
00:01:10.400 In Canada, this ideology has led governments
00:01:12.880 to shut down coal plants,
00:01:14.720 introduce heavy-handed regulations
00:01:16.640 that destroy jobs and industry,
00:01:18.300 and impose a national carbon tax.
00:01:20.620 And those who oppose any of this,
00:01:22.720 get their name dragged through the mud,
00:01:24.700 and become the victim of character assassinations
00:01:27.340 and vicious name-calling.
00:01:28.800 So what could be done about all this?
00:01:30.560 Where does this leave those of us
00:01:31.840 who care about the environment,
00:01:33.380 believe in conservation,
00:01:34.900 and want to protect the planet
00:01:36.280 from pollution and degradation,
00:01:38.320 but we don't quite subscribe to the hysteria,
00:01:40.960 alarmism, and environmentalist ideology?
00:01:43.780 Well, that's what this investigative documentary series
00:01:46.580 is all about.
00:01:47.660 We explore the policies, the activists, the organizations,
00:01:50.780 the governments, the international institutions,
00:01:53.440 and the global climate lobby
00:01:55.580 to try to understand whether they are actually working
00:01:58.280 for the good of the planet,
00:01:59.680 or whether they're motivated
00:02:00.700 by something else altogether.
00:02:02.620 This original series features investigative reporting,
00:02:06.140 new information, exclusive interviews,
00:02:08.760 and bombshell revelations
00:02:10.620 about the industry behind the climate change movement.
00:02:14.260 During this series,
00:02:15.140 we peel back the layers of the onion,
00:02:17.380 and expose to you, the viewer,
00:02:19.320 why it is okay to be skeptical
00:02:21.360 of the climate alarmists.
00:02:22.820 It's okay to challenge their ideology
00:02:25.200 and to oppose their heavy-handed prescriptions.
00:02:27.760 And it's okay to stand up for our industries
00:02:30.920 and be proud of the energy we produce.
