New Documentary Challenges Gore's 'Inconvenient Truth' on Global Warming
Fox News ^ | update 11-21-2009 | Fox News.com

Al Gore's award-winning global warming film "An Inconvenient Truth," socked two years ago by a British court ruling that found several errors, is facing additional scrutiny with the release of a new documentary that seeks to rebut many of Gore's claims.

In Gore's film, directed by Davis Guggenheim and released in 2006, the former vice president argues that humans are causing climate change, a problem he says is the biggest moral challenge facing the globe.

If humans don't act to reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases, Gore contends, the deaths caused by climate change will double in 25 years to 300,000 people a year, and more than a million species worldwide could be driven to extinction in half a century.

The film went on to win Academy Awards for Gore and Guggenheim and to re-energize the environmental movement.

But in 2007, a British High Court judge ruled that Gore's film contained nine significant errors and should no longer be screened in schools unless accompanied by guidance notes to balance Gore's "one-sided" views

I saw an interview of the two filmakers last night. Hope to see the film sometime, assuming it’s not censored.

Bought the DVD through a program that also sends two copies to the schools. Watched it last week. Money well spent.

AlGore is only in it for the money. He put solar panels on his house and actually INCREASED his carbon footprint.

He's a poseur. He's a fat fatcat. He's never been poor. He's never split one chicken into thirteen servings. He's never had only $5 a week for gasoline for the car in order to get to work. He's never skipped a meal EVERY NIGHT for a week so that his kids could eat. He's never bought his kids' school clothes at Goodwill and Salvation Army and Yard Sales.

AlGore is a fat elitist disconnected poseur.

I keep thinking about the Scientist that was speaking up about the lies. These Frauds in UK were making fun of him and planning ways to discredit him

I have never believed ANYTHING algore says.
Especially in light of his lies on the Senate Floor before he was picked to be Clintons Toady.
