Twenty Years Later, 'An Inconvenient Truth' Has Been Thoroughly Debunked

Glacier National Park removes signs predicting end of glaciers in 2020 after Gore's prediction

It's no understatement to say that the 2006 documentary "An Inconvenient Truth" changed the direction of public policy. And in fact, that's exactly what failed presidential candidate Al Gore intended the film to do. Fortunately for him, he found a willing audience of Hollywood celebrities and left-wing media outlets to uncritically promote his ideology and activism.

Unfortunately for him, 2006 is now far enough in the past that we can test some of the predictions, claims, and statements of fact he makes in that film. So that's exactly what we did.

At the start of 2026, nearly 20 years after the film hit theaters and helped pave the way for Europe's delusional "net zero" policies, electric car mandates, and low-flow showerheads, OutKick rewatched "An Incovenient Truth" to see how well it held up over time. Spoiler alert: not particularly well!

Can AlGore be forced to refund the ticket and rental $$ from his crockumentary? Maybe to a charity that actually DOES important things?

As well as his cohorts scheming along with him.

We've had a brutally cold, miserable winter here. I remember hearing some chatter about how we would be the last children to encounter snow... my 6 year old begs to differ!
