complex, chaotic, non-linear dynamics are an inherent aspect of the climate system

Water vapour feedback continues to be the most consistently important feedback accounting for the large warming predicted by general circulation models in response to a doubling of CO2. Water vapour feedback acting alone approximately doubles the warming from what it would be for fixed water vapour (Cess et al., 1990; Hall and Manabe, 1999; Schneider et al., 1999; Held and Soden, 2000). Furthermore, water vapour feedback acts to amplify other feedbacks in models, such as cloud feedback and ice albedo feedback. If cloud feedback is strongly positive, the water vapour feedback can lead to 3.5 times as much warming as would be the case if water vapour concentration were held fixed (Hall and Manabe, 1999).

In 1997, the director, Martin Durkin, produced a very similar series for Channel 4 called “Against Nature”, which also maintained that global warming was a scam dreamt up by environmentalists. It was riddled with hilarious scientific howlers. More damagingly, the only way in which Durkin could sustain his thesis was to deceive the people he interviewed and to edit their answers to change their meaning. Following complaints by his interviewees, the Independent Television Commission found that “the views of the four complainants, as made clear to the interviewer, had been distorted by selective editing” and that they had been “misled as to the content and purpose of the programmes when they agreed to take part.”(14) Channel 4 was obliged to broadcast one of the most humiliating primetime apologies it has ever made

in the 70's scientists were 100% sure that we were entering a global cooling period
Written by:
its clear that there were concerns, perhaps quite strong, in the minds of a number of scientists of the time. And yet, the papers of the time present a clear consensus that future climate change could not be predicted with the knowledge then available. Apparently, the peer review and editing process involved in scientific publication was sufficient to provide a sober view. This episode shows the scientific press in a very good light; and a clear contrast to the lack of any such process in the popular press, then and now.

I did not say the body was MADE of CO2
Written by: Sym
Even if we were made from 100% co2, it wouldn't mean that co2 is never harmful, as they were trying to imply - so the argument is pointless either way.

remember before the greeks everyone KNEW the earth was flat (not true but a vast majority believed it to be so) until someone comes along with a radical idea everyone dislikes (like this program you speak of) science does not progress, it stagnates

I bet I could find more than 1 scientist (therefore scientistS who were 100% sure we were entering global cooling semantics but truth NOT a lie.

Dream- I made a point of watching the doc and found it a little disturbing, as it seemed to make some plausible claims.
You seem to know what you're talking about and have dealt with several of the documentaries claims- however, they're not really the ones that I personally found troubling...
