Not many vice presidents are particularly memorable. They’re the number two guy on the nation’s top ticket who, despite having an important role in backroom politics, are rarely ever called upon for high-profile service. Or as Thomas Jefferson put it all the way back in 1797, “The second office of this government is honorable & easy, the first is but a splendid misery.”
However, Bill Clinton’s veep, Al Gore, made a name for himself in two ways.
First, by insisting on endless recounts in Florida in the hopes of winning the 2000 presidential election against George W. Bush.
Second, for his documentary “An Inconvenient Truth,” which was ostensibly intended to educate the public about global warming. This film debuted in 2006 and was awarded two Oscars in 2007. Also in 2007, Gore was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his climate alarmism.
The only problem is that 20 years later, all of his “inconvenient truths” have been thoroughly debunked.
Gore definitely helped stimulate a political movement, and ecofascism was the rancid fruit of his fearmongering. He held the belief, like many environmentalists do, that the world is dying because of humans, and we’re running out of time to fix it. Thus, climate virtue signals began to hit the mainstream.
It was “virtuous” to drive clean cars, not eat red meat, and promote alternative energy, all to save the dying planet. Europe is still trying to get to “net zero” by 2030. Denmark is even forcing its farmers to poison their cattle to prevent flatulence because of the methane gas that is produced.
In “An Inconvenient Truth,” Gore rants about how greenhouse gases like CO2 cause global warming. (Nary a Democrat, of course, will point out that CO2 isn’t a pollutant.) He claimed that because humans are adding to greenhouse gases, there would no longer be snow on Africa’s Mount Kilimanjaro, that all the glaciers would melt, and that natural disasters and monster storms would occur in perpetuity.
Here we are in 2026, and Mount Kilimanjaro still has snow (even record snowfall as recently as 2018). The glaciers that Gore was so concerned about disappearing are all still there. In fact, one glacier in Argentina — El Perito Moreno — is growing larger. Big storms and natural disasters occur just as they have before, fluctuating year after year. In other words, Gore’s big points have all been debunked. The documentary didn’t age well.
And now some facts proving the weather hoax – Weather analysis models
My new paper (May, 2025) emphasizes that while many of the underlying observations used to build weather reanalysis datasets, such as ERA5 (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts or ECMWF Reanalysis v5) (Soci et al., 2024) or MERRA-2 (Modern-Era Retrospective analysis for Research and Applications, Version 2) (Gelaro et al., 2017), are from radiosondes, weather reanalysis models are still models and have the same problems that other models have. Thus, they are not observations or measurements, like those in radiosonde data repositories such as IGRA2, and should not be treated as such. The reanalysis models assimilate surface measurements and satellite data in addition to radiosonde data and blend the measurements together into a global or regional grid using a general circulation atmospheric model. Weather reanalysis models produce reasonably consistent, physics-based periodic (usually every 6 to 12 hours) estimates of the global atmospheric state (Bloom et al., 1996), but they are not observations. Dr. Hans Hersbach of ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts) provides us with figure 1 below which is an illustration of the data assimilation process in ERA5.
More, oh…much more here, with all the math to prove it
In conclusion, Al Gore is a liar, in it for the money and the fame he didn’t get for being first loser in 1980
