Global Warming Is in the Hot Seat With ‘Climate Hustle’ Coming to Select U.S. Cinemas This May

Produced in the unique, entertaining and informative style that has made CFACT (Committee For A Constructive Tomorrow) and Marc Morano’s ClimateDepot.com one of the world’s most-sought-after sources for facts about climate issues, “Climate Hustle” will tear the cover off the global warming debate to further investigate this multi-billion-dollar issue. Fathom Events and SpectiCast present this thought-provoking event on Monday, May 2, 2016, at 7:00 p.m. local time. In addition to the feature, audiences will also view an exclusive panel discussion and opening remarks by Congressman Lamar Smith (R-TX), Chairman of the House Science, Space and Technology Committee, headlined by special guest Governor Sarah Palin (2008 Republican Vice Presidential Candidate, 9th Governor of Alaska), and including notable climate experts and an appearance by Emmy Award-winning educator Bill Nye the Science Guy.

Tickets for “Climate Hustle” can be purchased online by visiting www.FathomEvents.com or at participating theater box offices. Fans throughout the U.S. will be able to enjoy the event in nearly 400 movie theaters through Fathom’s Digital Broadcast Network. For a complete list of theater locations visit the Fathom Events website(theaters and participants are subject to change).

Award-winning investigative journalist Marc Morano, host of “Climate Hustle,” said: “This film is truly unique among climate documentaries. ‘Climate Hustle’ presents viewers with facts and compelling video footage going back four decades and delivers a powerful presentation of dissenting science, best of all, in a humorous way. This film may change the way you think about 'global warming.'"

“Climate Hustle” takes a probing look at the many questions surrounding global warming issues today. Is there scientific consensus regarding emissions from our cars, factories, and farms or is man-made “global warming” an environmental con job being used to push for increased government regulations and a new "green" energy agenda? This event will examine the history of climate scares and debunk claims by activists calling us to “act immediately before it's too late." This event also profiles key scientists such as Georgia Tech Climatologist Dr. Judith Curry, former NASA atmospheric scientist Dr. John Theon, and French physicist and Socialist Party member Claude Allègre, who used to believe in climate alarm but have since converted to skepticism.

“Climate change is certainly one of the hot-button issues at the forefront of some of the fiercest political debates. This event aims to shed light on varied perspectives and initiate healthy and timely conversation around this important topic,” said Fathom Events Vice President of Programming Kymberli Frueh.

“‘Climate Hustle’ is an extremely timely event, especially given the relevant political discussion surrounding global warming,” said Mark Rupp, Co-founder and President of SpectiCast Entertainment. “We feel it is important to share all viewpoints on the climate change issue, and ‘Climate Hustle’ provides a perspective not generally shared with the public at large in an informative and engaging way.”
