Filmed across nine countries, Greedy Lying Bastards is an in-depth investigation into the deceit and corruption at play in the fossil fuel industry. Rising sea levels, severe droughts, record heat waves; climate change is no longer a prediction for the future, but a startling reality of today. But while evidence of the changing climate mounts, there continues to be little political action to prevent global warming. Greedy Lying Bastards investigates the reasons behind stalled efforts to tackle climate change, detailing the people and organisations casting doubt on the warming of our planet. From high-profile oil companies to prominent politicians, this powerful exposé uncovers the layers of deceit threatening to cause irreparable damage to the planet. This documentary features archive footage of key figures including David Koch, Barack Obama, Mitt Romney, George W. Bush, Al Gore, Ban Ki-moon and many more.
