POCATELLO, ID – The Pocatello Tea Party has teamed up with the Idaho Freedom Foundation for a world premier film event. The film “Not Evil, Just Wrong,” is a feature-length documentary which takes on the conventional wisdom of global warming. This event is being coordinated with the filmmakers and hundreds of other groups nationwide to qualify this event for the World Record Premiere.
 
Commencing a full blown attack on the hypocrisy and ill-conceived policies of the modern environmental movement, while simultaneously countering years of slanted, Hollywood political productions from the likes of Michael Moore and Al Gore, Pocatello Tea Party will host a “premiere party” of the film “Not Evil Just Wrong” on Sunday evening, October 18th, at 6pm. The event is free to the public and will be held at ISU's Chemistry Department, Room 140.
 
“I hope you will join us for the statewide premiere of the movie 'Not Evil, Just Wrong' -- a comprehensive look at rhetoric vs. reality in the debate on global warming. Showings are taking place in Boise, Twin Falls, Pocatello, Coeur d'Alene, Sandpoint and Moscow,” said Wayne Hoffman, the executive director of the Idaho Freedom Foundation, a non-profit, non-partisan free market think tank.
 
“Not Evil, Just Wrong” shows how extreme environmentalism is damaging the lives of the most vulnerable populations in the developed and developing world. With examples from Indiana to Uganda the film shows how Global Warming "solutions" will destroy jobs and livelihoods in America during one of the biggest recessions in living memory.
 
Global warming remains one of the most controversial issues of our times. “Not Evil, Just Wrong” shreds the outlandish claims made in Al Gore’s film, "An Inconvenient Truth," and tells the story of Americans who want the best for their families and want the truth to be told about bad science and elitist initiatives.
 
“This is a movie Hollywood doesn’t want you to see,” says Ann McElhinney, one of the filmmakers. “It’s not a mainstream Hollywood documentary. It features real people, and the real impact on their lives. We are going to distribute it the same way we shot the film – premiering it all across the country.”
 
Some, like Al Gore, President Obama, and many environmentalists, believe that radical action to curtail emissions must be undertaken immediately; regardless of the impact such actions will have on our economy and way of life.
 
Others, like the makers of “Not Evil, Just Wrong” and the Idaho Freedom Foundation, question the science behind human-caused global warming, but even more importantly question whether solutions to other, more immediate challenges must be sacrificed in order to minimally impact a supposed problem that has not been directly linked to the death of a single person.
 
“Not Evil, Just Wrong,” explores the science of global warming with a skeptic’s eye, but it also links the current “crisis” of global warming to other supposed crises that mankind has faced in recent memory. The draconian measures that must be undertaken not only here in America, but around the world in order to have a measurable impact on CO2 emissions, like the banning of DDT, will have harmful impacts on all of us, but will disproportionately affect those who can least afford it, the world’s poor.
