PREDICTION 1: June 1988 NASA's Jim Hansen says before Congress "That the West Side Highway in New York City will be underwater in 20-40 years."
REALITY: We're 23 years into this prediction and sea levels have risen 2.5" since then...only about 10 feet to go before the West Side Highway goes underwater. At the current pace we're about 1,200 years away.
Reality! Since you gave no link, going to call this a lie until you back it up with a link.
PREDICTION 2: 12 October 2007 Al Gore said with apocalyptic certainty while accepting the Nobel Peace Prize, "The North Polar ice cap is falling off a cliff; 'It could be completely gone in summer in as little as seven years. Seven years from now!" We all can point to thousands of media stories on this topic so Al has some company on this scientific propaganda.
REALITY: It's now 7 years later and what do we have? 76% bigger ice coverage and thickness than just two years ago, 35% BIGGER than 2007 when Gore spoke from the pulpit.
Reality! Al Gore is a businessman, ex-politician, and a journalist by training. He should not have tried his hand at ice prediction. No more than you should be trying your hand at half-lies. The summer lows for the ice are very much lower than they were in 1979 when we first started getting accurate numbers from the satellites.

PREDICTION 3: Hurricanes numbers are increasing and getting stronger.
REALITY: The scary truth is Global and Atlantic basin hurricane activity and intensity has been plummeting for years and now at 50 year lows globally and 30 year lows in the Atlantic.
Reality! Again, working with half-lies and outright lies. There is much variability in hurricane strength and numbers year to year. However, you have given numbers for the Atlantic, and ignored the record numbers of hurricanes in the Pacific. And the record intensity for some of those hurricanes. And the numbers will continue to vary, and every year that the are low, you will point this out, and ignore the years that they are very high. That is how liars work.
PREDICTION 4: Snow and frost will disappear. Same group as point 3 but there are hundreds of scientists who made this claim over the past 20 years.
REALITY: As soon as the 30-year Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) cycle started it's cold phase in 2007 we've seen a wholesale change in the severity of cold/snowy Winters the past 7 years. Cold Pacific Ocean - cold snowy planet with 4 of the past 7 winters the snowiest on record based on NOAA/NASA measurements that started in the late 1960s.
Reality. Outright lie, dumb ****. One scientist made this prediction for England, not the whole world. And the average date for the first snowfall in the mountains has been getting later every decade for several decades now, worldwide. And the average date for the snow melt has been earlier in the spring every decade for several decades now.

PREDICTION 6: Global temperatures will be +0.8C to +1.8C above average by 2014 made by 74 IPCC UN Climate Models in 2005 - just 9 years ago and they were completely and utterly wrong and not one predicted the continued 17 years pause in global temperatures.
REALITY: They all get F and time to go back to the drawing board to figure out why! Last year July, all 90 IPCC climate models were completely wrong as the global temperature remained flat for 16 straight years - not one predicted the pause with the current temp below the 100% guarantee it won't be this temp.
Reality! Looks like 2015 is going to come in above +1 C. How can you be so stupid as to ignore what is happening right now?

PREDICTION 7: Tornadoes are getting more frequent, greater numbers and much stronger.
REALITY: According to the severe storms forecast center, the actual number of violent monster F3 tornadoes has actually been decreasing.
Reality! OK, the number of F3 tornadoes has been diminishing. But the scale is F1, F2, F3, F4, and F5. F5 being the strongest. So why the specified F3? Maybe because the other numbers don't agree with your statement? Nice little half lie.
