An inconvenient review: After 10 years Al Gore’s film is still alarmingly inaccurate

[Theowl32]

It’s been nearly one decade since former Vice President Al Gore released his film “An Inconvenient Truth.” It sent shockwaves through American politics and emboldened environmental activists to push for more regulations on American businesses.

Gore warned increasing carbon dioxide emissions would spur catastrophic global warming that would cause more extreme weather, wipe out cities and cause ecological collapse. To stop global warming, humans needed to ditch fossil fuels and basically change every aspect of their lives.

Watching “An Inconvenient Truth” is sort of like going back in time. Back to a world where flip phones were cool and “Futurama” was still putting out new episodes. A world where a bitter presidential candidate was trying to rebrand himself as an environmental crusader.

But have Gore’s warnings, which were alarming to many in 2006, come true?


Kilimanjaro Still Has Snow
Gore Left Out The 15-Year “Hiatus” In Warming
The Weather Hasn’t Gotten Worse
The North Pole Still Has Ice
A “Day After Tomorrow”-Style Ice Age Is Still A Day Away

10 years later, and deniers are still obsessed with lying about Gore. Let's go down the list one by one, after first noting how such a limited list is obviously a dishonest and desperate cherrypicking fallacy to start with.

Kilimanjaro Still Has Snow
We'll give you that one. Better prediction are it won't lose its ice cap until 2040.

Gore Left Out The 15-Year “Hiatus” In Warming
As the hiatus was always a fantasy.

The Weather Hasn’t Gotten Worse
And it has.

The North Pole Still Has Ice
And the movie never said otherwise.

A “Day After Tomorrow”-Style Ice Age Is Still A Day Away
Then you deniers should stop predicting an ice age, eh? After all, you're the only ones doing so.

So, 4 out of 5 lies from deniers. That's more honesty from them than is usual.

Enjoy losing in 2016 over this, deniers. Global warming isn't the only issue on the ballot, but it is one that will help inflict a well-deserved reaming on the Republicans. Look at that, 63-30. How many states do you think the global warming issue will tip into the Democratic column?

The public don't give a rats ass about your fairy tale JUNK science.

More than half have said they'd prefer a candidate that believes in AGW and acts on that belief. Better than a rat's ass I'd say.

At least you admit that you are nothing but a pawn that is only influenced by bandwagon reasoning.

The pitiful thing about you is you don't realize that that is what you did. The more pitiful thing about you is you don't realize that is all you are. Even more pitiful is how you and losers like you think the popular point of view is the true one.

Again read the results of 2014 and Steyers failed attempt

Nobody but you cares about Steyer, or even knows who he is.

But then, I guess you have to deflect from the issues somehow, the core issue being how you deniers have failed at every single prediction for over 40 years running, causing the whole planet to correctly define you as the brainwashed acolytes of a liars' cult. In stark contrast, the climate scientists have gotten everything right for those 40 years, which is why the world assigns them such credibility. You can weep about that here on a message board, but that won't change anything.

LMAO.....great thread!!! Why do you think we never see this bozo anymore?

Look at the gheyness of post #8.........emotional hemophilia........its 2016........nobody cares about global warming and it falls lower and lower every year since 2008 on every poll.

 

[skookerasbil]

PS........on exit polling in Indiana the other night, the Democrats voting for Hill or Bernie had "terrorism" at 7% as amongst their top concerns ( the economy was 45% ).

"Climate change"??
