Not Evil Just Wrong

Not Evil Just Wrong is the name of an Irish film currently seeking funding for distribution. The film claims that environmentalists who are worried about global climate change—such as Al Gore—are misguided alarmists. The filmmakers argue that global warming either isn't happening today at all or has been happening since the 1850s, and the continued emphasis on climate change hurts the poor who could benefit from unhindered business opportunities.Irish Times: Film-makers taking on...

On the website Drudge Report, Matt Drudge linked to an article about the movie in the Irish Times on November 17, 2008.

McElhinney and McAleer also produced Mine Your Own Business, a 2006 film which argued that the actions of environmentalists were destroying communities in developing countries. That film was 70% funded by Gabriel Resources, a Canadian mining company seeking to open a gold mine in Rosia Montana, a poor village in Romania. When the film opened in 2006, it was picketed by environmentalists.Irish Times: Film-makers taking on global warming... (November 15, 2008)
