ALTERNATIVE REALITIES (HOAX)

To develop my raft of Global Warmning pieces further I am considering creating a fictional movement that is represented as true. It will be based on a web-site reflecting back over a movement that "existed" in the late 60's early 70's that was ignored and criticised by the establishment for predicting global warming and the catastrophies that would ensue if it went un-checked. By having them predict real life scenarios that are happening now it will give them credence and also make any predictions into the future grounded in some sort of proof.

In the style of the film the Blair Witch project I want to create an invented movement backdated to give the impression that what i am creating actually existed and was real and was not a construct. It will be a hoax but grounded in reality and this will

The aim is that as it is hard to predict and prove 100% what devastation Global Warming will have looking into the future what if you could. By going back to the late 60's early 70's and inventing a fictional but very real looking Global Warmning movement and setting it up as real what would people think of predictions that are a reality now. People love the idea of being able to predict the future and Nostradamus and Rasputin prove this as well as a good conspiracy theory.

Scarfolk and Hookland are sites site that do just this that have inspired the idea. and are good for gaining inspiration.
