‘Dramatically Misleading’ Is the Term for Al Gore’s ‘Inconvenient’ Claims About Climate Change

As Yogi Berra puts it, it’s tough to make predictions, especially about the future.

It was 20 years ago that Vice President Gore’s book “An Inconvenient Truth” was published, and … well, it turns out that the truth was inconvenient — for Mr. Gore and his band of apocalyptics.I asked my team to use the AI chatbot ChatGPT as a referee in assessing the accuracy of the book’s scary and often-quoted conclusions.It turns out ChatGPT is very diplomatic. Its overall conclusion was that “the fairest assessment is more nuanced than saying that ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ was simply ‘wrong.'”Instead we learn that over and over, on page after page, the former vice president’s “specific predictions and timelines were exaggerated or did not occur as presented.”That we can all agree on. Here are some of the predictions and ChatGPT’s conclusions about their accuracy.Claim: Kilimanjaro’s snow would disappear within a decade.Truth: The mountain still has ice/snow, although its glaciers have shrunk.Claim: Glacier National Park’s glaciers will disappear by 2020 or so.Truth: No, they have not disappeared. Maybe his timing was just way off.Claim: Sea levels could rise by about 20 feet.Truth: This was labeled “dramatically misleading.” In reality, a 20-foot rise has not remotely occurred since Mr. Gore’s 2006 claim.Claim: A melting/breaking of the Greenland and West Antarctic ice sheets could trigger catastrophic sea-level rise.Truth: This hasn’t happened either.Claim: Hurricanes will become more severe and frequent.Truth: There isn’t a modern-day trend of steadily increasing numbers of stronger hurricanes. So far this year, there have been no hurricanes in the Atlantic.Claim: Arctic ice will disappear.Truth: Arctic summer sea ice has declined substantially, but it has not disappeared.As the great Yogi Berra used to say: It’s tough to make predictions, especially about the future. Even the best forecasters make best-guess mistakes.Yet the mistakes that Mr. Gore, the United Nations and other climate change alarm groups make are always in the same direction.They employ fear and trumpet worst-case scenarios in their demands for more government control and more funding for … themselves. They’ve often been highly successful. Nations have spent multiple trillions of dollars to combat climate change — and yet even they admit that their policies haven’t fixed things. Then they call for even more money. It’s become a climate-industrial complex and a racket.Given Mr. Gore’s faulty forecasting record, I keep wondering whether he will be a stand-up guy and admit that his Chicken Little warnings were wrong.Probably not. Falsely predicting the end of the world is making too many people rich. And that really IS an inconvenient truth.Creators.com

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT

******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********

(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/
