Sarah Palin Throws Support Behind New Anti-Climate Change Movie

‘Climate Hustle’, a forthcoming climate change denying documentary, has scored itself a champion in former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

The former Alaskan governor is throwing her weight behind the movie made by former Republican aide and climate change skeptic Marc Morano which, it’s claimed, 'may change the way you think about global warming’.

“I’m very passionate about this issue,” Palin told Variety.

“We’ve been told by fearmongers that global warming is due to man’s activities and this presents strong arguments against that in a very relatable way.”

Palin sued the US government in 2008, while she was governor, for placing the polar bear on the endangered species list, and has dismissed climate change models claiming the melting of Arctic sea ice as 'unreliable’, 'uncertain’ and 'unproven’.

“I wanted facts and real numbers. The polar bear population is stable, if not growing and the designation would have stymied Alaska’s pursuit of developing its natural resources,” she said.

Palin also added that 'Climate Hustle’ provides a foil to Al Gore’s Oscar-winning global warming doc 'An Inconvenient Truth’.

“People who do not believe in American exceptionalism have made this into a campaign issue, so it’s vital that the other side be heard,” she said.

“I’m very pleased that this is written and spoken in layman’s terms. My dad taught science to fifth and sixth graders, and it was very important to him that science be presented in an understandable way.”

Palin will be speaking on a panel following a screening of the movie in Washington, D.C., later this week, while the film will open on 400 screens across the US next month.

NASA measurements have determined that 14 of the 16 hottest years on record have occurred since 2000, with 2015 being the hottest ever.
