Background

Tom Nelson produced the 2024 film Climate: The Movie (The Cold Truth), directed by Martin Durkin, who was also behind The Great Global Warming Swindle (2007).2Geoffrey Lean. “Climate change: An inconvenient truth… for C4,” The Independent, March 11, 2007. Archived March 22, 2007. Archive URL: https://archive.ph/ykfkd

Nelson described himself on Substack as “a podcaster who has been deeply examining climate debate issues for the better part of two decades.”3Climate: The Movie FAQ,” tomn.substack.com, March 19, 2024. Archived March 27, 2024. Archive URL: https://archive.ph/3HSo0

He is a member4About CO2 Coalition,” CO2 Coalition. Archived March 26, 2024.

“Tom Nelson has an MS degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering. He was involved in tech and software for many years. In 2005, as an avid bird-watcher, he became heavily involved in debunking a high-profile, but bogus ‘Ivory-billed Woodpecker’ rediscovery that opened his eyes to the problems with blindly trusting ‘peer-reviewed science’. Then a meteorologist pointed out lots of parallels between that woodpecker debate and the climate change debate, and Tom has been debunking climate change claims online almost daily since then.”7Tom Nelson,CO2 Coalition.

Climate: The Movie

“This film exposes the climate alarm as an invented scare without any basis in science,” Nelson summarized on his Substack.8Climate: The Movie FAQ,” tomn.substack.com, March 19, 2024. Archived March 27, 2024. Archive URL: https://archive.ph/0BOAY

“It shows that mainstream studies and official data do not support the claim that we are witnessing an increase in extreme weather events – hurricanes, droughts, heatwaves, wildfires and all the rest. It emphatically counters the claim that current temperatures and levels of atmospheric CO2 are unusually and worryingly high. On the contrary, it is very clearly the case, as can be seen in all mainstream studies, that, compared to the last half billion years of earth’s history, both current temperatures and CO2 levels are extremely and unusually low. We are currently in an ice age. It also shows that there is no evidence that changing levels of CO2 (it has changed many times) has ever ‘driven’ climate change in the past.”

Nelson wrote: “On the Tom Nelson Podcast in the fall of 2022, Martin expressed a desire to remake 2007’s ‘The Great Global Warming Swindle’, and that kicked off a successful effort to do just that. Many of the scientists interviewed in Climate: The Movie have done lengthy interviews for the Tom Nelson Podcast.”9Climate: The Movie FAQ,” tomn.substack.com, March 19, 2024. Archived March 27, 2024.

Nelson said the following in an interview following the launch of Climate: The Movie:111524: ‘We hoeven niet ons hele leven om te gooien vanwege co2’ | Gesprek met Tom Nelson,” YouTube upload by user “De Nieuwe Wereld TV,” March 21, 2024. Archived .mp4 on file at DeSmog.

“If you dig into the data, there’s absolutely no climate crisis, and the weather’s not getting worse, and CO2 isn’t the climate control knob,” Nelson said. “Just about everything that they’re telling you is a lie. And anything alarming they’re telling you, everything is a lie. There’s nothing alarming at all happening with the weather or the climate.”

“My professional life doesn’t relate to the climate debate in any signifiant way. I’m just an amateur with an interest in sanity-checking scientific claims against objective reality.”

“The ‘climate crisis’ house of cards collapses quickly with a little fact checking,” he claims in the summary slide.
