Our project for our Finals is the Documentary film we’ll be making upon our community service. our topic’s about climate change. i wanted to make a short film on climate change to awaken people about the global problem we’re now facing wherein man gradually suffers.
I would like to start the story with the creation of God, there’s a clip and narration. but i don’t know what’s next to that. the only idea i have is for the end of the film, where i’ll be showing the footage of our destroyed environment in the present.
help me please.
It seems appropriate for you to couch AGW in religious terms. While the AGW advocates use science to advance their cause, the science falls short, and they make up the difference with faith based methods.

AGW requires some religious thinking to truly grasp it.

To scientifically support the AGW theory, you need to provide evidence for the AGW articles of faith:
1) The earth is currently in a warming phase. The problem is that satellite measurements have failed to show a clear trend over the last decade (TLC for near surface):

2) The warming is caused by high levels of CO2.

The problem is that high CO2 concentrations are associated with cooling phases of the earth’s climate:

3) The rise in the CO2 concentration from 0.028% to 0.039% of the atmosphere is caused by man’s burning of fossil fuels, and not the effect of a rise in the temperature of the ocean.

The problem is that measurements done in the 1800’s do not support that thesis:
1878: CO2 = 344 ppm
1880: CO2 = 271 ppm

4) The current temperature of the earth is historically unprecedented:

Historians sing a different tune:

So do scientists who study ancient flora and fauna:

5) If the earth continues to warm, it will be a disaster. The evidence supports just the opposite. There will not be more terrible weather. There is no good indication that this will affect the pandemic rate. The oceans are not rising at an alarming rate. Glaciers and sea ice are not going away globally. Agriculture would benefit, and might be able to keep up with our growing population a little longer if global warming actually happens.
6) Governments can and should control the climate. There is no reason to believe that government action will affect the climate on earth any more that it would on the surface of the sun. The draconian measures being proposed by governments are highly controversial.
