This was actually released by the 10:10 people. Why would they run a hatchet piece on themselves? :cuckoo:
 
You just have to laugh when these fools don't even realize what a stupid idea that film was until after the worldwide backlash that came from both sides of the debate. Here is what they had to say the day after releasing the video:

Last week, 10:10 made available a short film. Following the initial reaction to the film we removed it from our website and issued an apology on Friday 2 October.

Subsequently there has been negative comment about the film, particularly on blogs, and concern from others working hard to build support for action on climate change. We are very sorry if this has distracted from their efforts.

We are also sorry to our corporate sponsors, delivery partners and board members, who have been implicated in this situation despite having no involvement in the film’s production or release.

We will learn from this mistake. Today I have written to supporters and stakeholders explaining that we will review processes and procedures to make sure it cannot happen again. Responsibility for this process is being taken by the 10:10 board.

The media coverage of the film was not the kind of publicity we wanted for 10:10, nor for the wider movement to reduce carbon emissions.

If people have been in touch with us personally about the film, we will be replying to individual emails over the next few days. Meanwhile our thanks go out to all those who support 10:10 and who work to combat the threat of climate change.

Good grief. Whose idea was that catastrophe of an ad campaign?

You'd think someone somewhere in that organization would've said ... "maybe the threat of gory assassination of people that disagree with us is a poor way to win converts." ("But ... it's worked so well for Al Qaida!").
