Critical analysis of the lies in the documentary ‘An Inconvenient Truth’: Climate alarmism
Introduction
‘An Inconvenient Truth’, is a 2006 documentary by director Davis Guggenheim starring former US Vice President Al Gore, about the destruction of the planet due to man-made climate change. However, despite winning an Oscar and contributing to Gore's Nobel Peace Prize, his documentary is an exaggeration of alarmist predictions for political and personal enrichment purposes that scared the unwary without scientific basis. History has shown that the Democrat politician's false predictions did not come true at all, yet he has left a legacy of lies that is used by his fellow far-left Democrat followers of neo-Marxist environmentalist ideas that have destroyed the energy industry and the US economy, which is going through unprecedented runaway inflation. His sequel ‘A Very Inconvenient Truth: Now or Never’ from 2017 is as alarmist as the first one, but more focused on the political theme as it is centered on the figures of Barack Obama and Donald Trump where as expected Trump is the villain of the film. In this second part, Gore talks more about himself than about climate change.
Hypocrisy Regarding Environmental Practices
Al Gore maintains a position of hypocrisy regarding his own environmental practices. Gore lives in an energy-intensive mansion and regularly travels by plane, which has a huge impact on greenhouse gas emissions. His hypocrisy as a protector of the planet and leader in the fight against the effects of climate change contradicts his famously alarmist statement:
‘The planet is dying if we don't act now’
His electricity bill reveals that he consumes 3,400% more energy than the average American household.
If Al Gore really believed in the urgency of stopping climate change, he should set an example by his own actions.
Al Gore Became a Billionaire With His False Theories on Climate Change
Al Gore went from a net worth of $2 million to more than $200 million after leaving the White House and cashing in on his alarmist climate change theories.
A Green (Of Bills)
Gore charges $175,000 per lecture. He is linked to at least 14 green technology companies. He sits on certain boards (guess which ones), plus the benefits of government grants, plus millions more in tax breaks. He is on his way to becoming what one congressional leader called ‘our first carbon billionaire.
Environmentalists Silent in Face of Ohio Ecological Disaster
In February 2023, White House attention to the environmental disaster in Ohio, caused by the derailment of 50 cars of a train carrying highly polluting and toxic chemicals such as vinyl chloride, confirms once again that the current Biden administration prioritizes the political interests of its alarmist climate change plans over the real disasters that actually affect the environment and people's health, as can be seen in this case.
Al Gore, Greenpeace, Biden, Kamala, Pelosi and Obama's environmental advisors, Ocasio-Cortez, Hollywood's Greta Thumberg, the Green Democrats, the left-wing media, and the rest of the crowd of champions and defenders of the so-called green planet, who for years have been incisively announcing an ‘imminent ecological catastrophe’, neither cared nor took note of this dangerous incident at the time, maintaining a silent coolness in the face of this fact. The presence of these figures in this real ecological crisis has raised questions about their true commitment to the environment and their impact on society.

Controversial Claims Without Scientific Consensus
One of the most common criticisms against Al Gore is his exaggeration of the consequences of climate change without the basis of a scientific consensus as he has used alarming data and projections to scare people and gain support for his cause by exaggerating the magnitude of the problem to promote his political agenda.
After the climate change debate, Al Gore's claims of climate change have been widely criticized by the media.
In his lectures around the world, he proclaimed a sense of alarmist panic as if the end of the world was just around the corner:
"We can't wait... We have a planetary emergency... The future of human civilization is at stake!... Global warming is the greatest challenge we have ever faced!"
President Obama Embraced Al Gore's Alarmist Campaigns
Obama raised the alarmist and Al Gore banners and told world leaders that ‘climate change is the number one problem we face today (not Islamic terrorism, not skyrocketing unsustainable debt).’
Rising Sea Levels
Gore presented dramatic scenarios of flooding in coastal areas and major cities. However, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has provided more conservative estimates of sea level rise.
Hurricanes and Extreme Storms
The film suggests a direct link between global warming and an increase in intense hurricanes. The IPCC has been more cautious in making this connection, indicating that more research is needed to determine the precise relationship.
Greenland and Antarctic Ice Melt
Gore presented scenarios of rapid and catastrophic melting. The IPCC reports suggest a more gradual and complex process, with significant uncertainties in long-term projections.
Gore claimed that the Arctic would be completely thawed by 2014, which has not happened.
Criticisms of the Methodology and Presentation
Oversimplification
Many scientists have criticized the film for oversimplifying complex climate processes, which could lead to public misunderstandings about climate science.
Selective Use of Data
Gore is accused of cherry-picking data and events that support his most alarmist arguments, without providing full context or discussing scientific uncertainties.
Impact and Legacy
Public Awareness
Despite winning an Oscar and contributing to Gore's Nobel Peace Prize, the documentary ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ and its sequel ‘A Very Inconvenient Truth: Now or Never’ is nothing more than an alarmist collection of facts and predictions that serve a globalist political, economic and ideological purpose to dominate society through the spread of terror.
Scientific and Political Debate
The film also intensified scrutiny of climate change claims, without a reasonable scientific consensus, which has led to a more rigorous debate in scientific and political circles of theories that have not been proven to be based on speculation that is more political than scientific in origin.
Conclusion on Climate Change Documentaries and the Ohio Case
While ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ and its sequel ‘An Inconvenient Truth: Now or Never’ have played an important role in bringing the issue of climate change to the forefront of public discourse, it is crucial to critically examine their claims in light of ongoing scientific research and IPCC reports. The climate change debate requires a balance between urgency of action and scientific accuracy.

Authorities estimate that 3,500 fish of 12 different species died in nearby waterways as a result of the derailment.
‘Global warming is the biggest scam in history (...) the climate catastrophe is strictly a scare campaign that has taken over the scientific world’, while claiming that it is ‘driven by corrupt scientists hooked on government grants’.
Meanwhile, it has become a weapon of manipulation, primarily by left-wing ‘progressive’ politicians, to control the minds of the electorate and to be seen as ‘saviors of the planet’.
The Hypocrisy of the Left and Environmentalists
Ohio demonstrated the incongruity of the so-called ‘green’ or environmental groups with their propaganda godfathers: the leftist governments, and the international panic-mongers, which goes a long way to explaining the complicity of silence and the minimization of the scale of the disaster under the Biden administration.

The Great Global Warming Swindle: A Critical Perspective
This analysis examines the documentary ‘The Great Global Warming Swindle’, directed by Martin Durkin, which challenges the common climate change narrative developed by the so-called defenders of the planet who are nothing more than a bunch of ‘progressives’ funded by elite globalist interests who have created an existential panic to achieve their interests in global economic and political dominance. Arguments are presented that question the link between carbon dioxide and global warming, proposing that the climate has historically changed without human intervention.

Introduction to Global Warming
Global warming has become a central issue that responds more to the political interests of globalist elites than to the scientific realm. It is argued that this phenomenon is not just a matter of climate change, but a moral principle of our time. The promoters of green ideology and man-made global warming do not admit any criteria of opposition to their false theories. They argue that any criticism of this perspective is considered illegitimate or dangerous without considering the scientific theories that oppose the macabre falsehood. Hence the importance of combating what lies behind this globalist scam.
Durkin states: ‘Global warming is a natural phenomenon that has occurred throughout the earth's history’. This perspective is central to his argument against the dominant narrative.
He further explains that ‘climate fluctuations are primarily due to solar activity and other natural factors’. This definition underlines the complexity of climate change beyond human contributions.
The Current Perception
Proponents of global warming claim that the debate is closed because they claim to have a monopoly on the truth. However, the documentary presents scientific opinions that question the integrity of this false narrative that seeks to alarm society by predicting weather and environmental catastrophes that have never and will never happen.

International scientists have jointly signed a declaration dismissing the existence of a climate crisis and insisting that carbon dioxide is beneficial to Earth, contrary to the popular alarmist narrative.
“There is no climate emergency,” the Global Climate Intelligence Group (CLINTEL) said in its World Climate Declaration made public in August. “Climate science should be less political, while climate policies should be more scientific. Scientists should openly address uncertainties and exaggerations in their predictions of global warming, while politicians should dispassionately count the real costs as well as the imagined benefits of their policy measures.”
A total of 1,609 scientists and professionals from around the world have signed the declaration, including 321 from the United States.
The coalition pointed out that Earth’s climate has varied as long as it has existed, with the planet experiencing several cold and warm phases. The Little Ice Age only ended as recently as 1850, they said.
"Therefore, it is no surprise that we now are experiencing a period of warming," the declaration said.
Warming is happening “far slower” than predicted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

The NY Times has been at it again – this time printing bald-faced inaccuracies (some might call it lying….).
Hiroko Tabuchi, a climate reporter for The New York Times, penned “A Trump Insider Embeds Climate Denial in Scientific Research” in the 2 March 2020 online version of the Times. I have tried, but I have found it difficult to find anything true in the story.
Here is Tabuchi’s lede:

The misleading language appears in at least nine reports, including environmental studies and impact statements on major watersheds in the American West that could be used to justify allocating increasingly scarce water to farmers at the expense of wildlife conservation and fisheries.”
