| Summary/Abstract |
"What could possibly be wrong with the rise of a few degrees over a century? Global Warming sounds pleasant, like a global village where no winter coats are necessary. This couldn’t be disastrous, it sounds idyllic and temperatures will always be balmy. Nothing could be further from the truth. It’s the end of the world as we know it. This one hour documentary lays bare the hidden catastrophe of Global Warming. Using original interviews with scientists and victims alike we look at the truth behind the controversy and examine the devastating current and future effects on our planet. Even the Pentagon is preparing for massive climate change causing civil disruption and conflict around the world. They tell us that the effects of Global Warming could turn Northern Europe into an icebox and flood half of Bangladesh. We find the people who are fighting Global Warming one power source at a time, one household at a time, one car at a time. And finally we ask the question “Is there anything we can do to prevent this catastrophe?”
