I'm not sure you can really say he exaggerates. He takes a position that many scientists agree with. You could say he takes a position on the effects of global warming that some people dispute, and which some people believe may not come to pass, but you cannot say he exaggerated until things play out- because we don't know yet what will happen. Someone mentioned that he was wrong on the ice core factoid. I don't know whether that is true or not. Most of the other facts he uses are not in dispute- it is only the eventual effects that are in contention- and we will not know who exaggerated until we reach the future, and that is one of Gore's points in the movie.
