Scammer Al Gore backs Occupy Wall Street protests

Al Gore backs Occupy Wall Street protests - The Hill's E2-Wire
by Andrew Restuccia 10-13-11

Former Vice President Al Gore threw his support behind the Occupy Wall Street protests Wednesday night, arguing that the country’s elected officials have failed the public on everything “from the economy to the climate crisis.”

Gore, a vocal advocate of policies to address climate change, called the protests — which have spread around the country — a “true grassroots movement.”

Having a Nobel Peace Prize doesn’t mean you can make up your own climate figures, as Al Gore just discovered.

Oscar winner for “An Inconvenient Truth,” Gore told members of the Copenhagen climate change summit (the Copenhagen Gang):


“Some of the models suggest to Dr. (Wieslav) Maslowski that there is a 75 percent chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during the summer months, could be completely ice-free within five to seven years.”

But there is a tiny little bit of inconvenience to that “truth”: Those figures aren’t real.

Maslowski, who works at the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School in California, was shocked at how Gore dragged his name through the ice-free mud.

“I was very explicit that we were talking about near-ice-free conditions and not completely ice-free conditions in the northern ocean. I would never try to estimate likelihood at anything as exact as this,” he said. “It’s unclear to me how this figure was arrived at, based on the information I provided to Al Gore’s office.”

Being a former vice president, it’s probably a force of habit for Gore to exaggerate the truth.
