Al Gore in Australia

[noesis]

The prophet of doom is in Australia peddling his climate nonsense.

I'm heartened by the comments made in response to this story.

You must have posted the link before I got my chance to add the voice of dissent. In the meanwhile, Media Mike Rann is falling over himself to prove how green he is.

Fuck Al Gore, I Hope he comes back to Nz so we can bury the bastard in a glacier :cool:

[size_of_light]

Which Al Gore?

Is it that bloated, corpulent ghoul made smug and filty rich by the shares his family held in Occidental Petroleum?

Or is it that stupid fat fuck with the watery eyes and the dead stare who travels from country to country denouncing the Petroleum Industry to corporate robots and college-age students more interested in their own fantasies about sucking his cock under the podium than the laughable horseshit in his Powerpoint presentations?

Anyway, welcome to Australia.

A British judge rules that Al Gore told a string of untruths in An Inconvenient Truth and children should be warned:

In order for the film to be shown, the Government must first amend their Guidance Notes to Teachers to make clear that ... (e)leven inaccuracies have to be specifically drawn to the attention of school children.

The inaccuracies are:

1. The film claims that melting snows on Mount Kilimanjaro evidence global warming. The Government’s expert was forced to concede that this is not correct.

2. The film suggests that evidence from ice cores proves that rising CO2 causes temperature increases over 650,000 years. The Court found that the film was misleading: over that period the rises in CO2 lagged behind the temperature rises by 800-2000 years.

3. The film uses emotive images of Hurricane Katrina and suggests that this has been caused by global warming. The Government’s expert had to accept that it was “not possible” to attribute one-off events to global warming.

4. The film shows the drying up of Lake Chad and claims that this was caused by global warming. The Government’s expert had to accept that this was not the case.

5. The film claims that a study showed that polar bears had drowned due to disappearing arctic ice. It turned out that Mr Gore had misread the study: in fact four polar bears drowned and this was because of a particularly violent storm.

6. The film threatens that global warming could stop the Gulf Stream throwing Europe into an ice age: the Claimant’s evidence was that this was a scientific impossibility.

7. The film blames global warming for species losses including coral reef bleaching. The Government could not find any evidence to support this claim.

8. The film suggests that the Greenland ice covering could melt causing sea levels to rise dangerously. The evidence is that Greenland will not melt for millennia.

9. The film suggests that the Antarctic ice covering is melting, the evidence was that it is in fact increasing.

10. The film suggests that sea levels could rise by 7m causing the displacement of millions of people. In fact the evidence is that sea levels are expected to rise by about 40cm over the next hundred years and that there is no such threat of massive migration.

11. The film claims that rising sea levels has caused the evacuation of certain Pacific islands to New Zealand. The Government are unable to substantiate this and the Court observed that this appears to be a false claim.
