Greedy Lying Bastards: How Industry has Shed Doubt on Climate Change Science

In GREEDY LYING BASTARDS, filmmaker and political activist Craig Rosebraugh, in association with Executive Producer Daryl Hannah, investigates efforts by oil industry interests, led by ExxonMobil and especially the Koch brothers, to fund skepticism of the scientific consensus on climate change. The film argues that this campaign is responsible for the failure to act on climate change. It covers "climategate," arguing that this was a made up scandal and blaming it for the failure of Copenhagen talks. The film links the oil industry's efforts directly with the tobacco industry's campaign to convince people cigarettes aren't harmful.
