An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power

Al Gore's movie

An Inconvenient Truth

won him an Oscar, and yet,

much of the movie is nonsense.

"Sea levels may rise 20 feet"

is absurd!

But this is Al Gore.

He always goes down the road

of hyperbole.

Not only is he losing

the argument

on climate change,

but he's losing the science

as well.

You don't go

see Joseph Goebbels' films

to see the truth

about Nazi Germany.

You don't want

to go see Al Gore's film

to see the truth

about global warming.

And it's the most severe

winter storm in years,

which would seem to contradict

Al Gore's hysterical

global warming theories.

Donald Trump says

he's had it up to here

with Al Gore

and is calling for the

Nobel Peace Prize committee

to take the prize away.

Yes or no, do you believe

that human-caused global warming

is a moral,

ethical, and spiritual issue

affecting our survival?

Yes, I do.

Yes or no,

do you believe that reducing

fossil fuel-based energy usage

will lead to lower

greenhouse gas emissions?

Basically, yes.

I don't think we...

That's... That's good.

Senator Gore...

If I could just, uh, continue...

Well, you can't.

Now, it seems

that everything is blamed

on global warming.

Last summer, we had a

heat wave, and everyone said,

"Oh, that's proof

it's global warming."

Then we had a mild December.

"Oh, that's proof"

"it's global warming

that's taking place."

Now, I wonder how come you guys

never seem to notice it

when it gets cold?

The National Academy of Sciences

here in this country

and in the 16

largest or most-developed

countries in the world

agrees with the consensus

that I've stated.

Senator Gore, my time

is almost expired completely.

Are you aware of that?

It seems that everybody...

I would like to respond.

May I respond?

...global warming in

the media joined the chorus...

Excuse me, Senator Imhofe.

How can you ask a question

and not give the man

a minute to answer?

Please.

Senator, thank you. Um...

I've been sitting here

trying to think

what I could do or say

that, uh...

That might make it possible

to reach out to you.

And I'm serious about this.

I'd love to, um,

talk with you

without the cameras

and without the lights and...

And tell you, uh,

why I feel so strongly

about this.

And we've got to call the other,

I think, three or four speakers

for the Generation Client

Conference, too.

All right, so now back to

the Paris conference.

I'd like a briefing on

the must-do meetings in Paris.

And I'll circle back

to Christiana

well before then

on how I can best help her.

I need to talk to

Secretary Kerry

- about the long-term goal.

- Mmm-hmm.

I want to schedule

the China climate training

during the first three months

of the year.

I think it would be good

to lock that down.

Yeah, definitely.

Morning. Morning.

Thank you for your help.

Since An Inconvenient Truth

came out ten years ago,

climate-related

extreme weather events

have gotten so much worse.

And so I've continued

to give my slideshow

all around the world.

Now, I want to add

the latest images

of the flooding going on

right now in Louisiana.

Okay, I think both of those'll

fit really well there.

I mean, every week now

this stuff

just keeps getting worse

and more of it.

But...

Actually, there were times when

it really looked bleak and dark

because the forces trying

to stop the change regrouped

and poured tons of money

in trying to paralyze

the political system

in the U.S.

and in other countries.

I got really discouraged.

And there came a time for me

when I felt, wow, we could

lose this struggle.
