-35 Inconvenient Truths. The errors in Al Gore’s movie An Inconvenient Truth.
An Inconvenient Truth.The judge had stated that, if the UKGovernment had not agreed to send to every secondary school in England a corrected guidance note making clear the mainstream scientific position on these nine “errorsâ€, he would have made a finding that the Government’s distribution of the film and the first draft of the guidance note earlier in 2007 to all English secondary schools had been an unlawful contravention of an Act of Parliament prohibiting the political indoctrination of children.Al Gore’s spokesman and “environment advisor,â€Ms.Kalee Kreider, begins by saying that the film presented “thousands and thousands of facts.â€It did not: just 2,000 “facts†in 93 minutes would have been one fact every three seconds. The film contained only a few dozen points,most of which will be seen to have been substantially inaccurate. The judge concentrated only on nine points which even the UK Government, to which Gore is a climate-change advisor, had to admit did not represent mainstream scientific opinion.Ms. Kreider then states, incorrectly, that the judge himself had never used the term“errors.â€In fact, the judge used the term “errors,â€in inverted commas, throughout his judgment.
