Two Decades Of Inconvenient Inaccuracies
I & I Editorial Board

As most know by now, Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” global warming propaganda film turned 20 a few days ago. It won a couple of Oscars in 2007, one for best documentary. The latter should be returned. The movie was filled with errors.
Exalting the celluloid screed with an Academy Award for best documentary is the equivalent of handing the Nobel Peace Prize to a terrorist, an incompetent, a fraud, an unaccomplished charlatan, and, yes, Gore himself, because it was far more a faux-umentary than an honest account of the facts.
In the same year that Gore was given his participation trophy, a British judge ruled that there were so many errors in the movie that it couldn’t be shown in schools unless it was supplemented by warnings pointing out its errors. Those inaccuracies included:
The claim the sea level would rise by 20 feet
Another that the disappearance of snow on Mount Kilimanjaro was directly caused by global warming
A further bogus assertion that polar bears were drowning due to global warming
After the judge’s decision, the British government required teachers to tell students that “in parts of the film, Gore presents evidence and arguments which do not accord with mainstream scientific opinion.”
