"We’re still putting 162 million tons [of greenhouse gas] into it every single day and the accumulated amount is now trapping as much extra heat as would be released by 600,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth," Gore said. "That’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers, and the rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land, and creating the droughts, and melting the ice and raising the sea level, and causing these waves of climate refugees."

Gore said during a speech at the Copenhagen Climate Conference in 2009 that there was "a 75% chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during some of the summer months, could be completely ice-free within the next five to seven years." The former vice president made similar comments at least twice before in speeches, citing research.

in his 2006 global warming documentary "An Inconvenient Truth," Gore predicted that the global sea level could rise as much as 20 feet "in the near future."

Gore also claimed in 2006 that there would be no solving climate change if drastic measures weren't taken around the world to reduce greenhouse gases by 2016. However, annual global carbon emissions increased from 30.59 billion tons in 2006 to 35.52 billion tons in 2016 and 37.12 billion tons in 2021, according to the Global Carbon Project.

In the same speech, Gore warned that stronger storms would continue to threaten entire cities. However, there has been a slight downward trend over the last 30 years of the Accumulated Cyclone Energy index, a tool used to measure tropical storm activity around the world, according to meteorologist and NOAA's former chief scientist Ryan Maue.

"The climate movement's real weakness is that, besides the intellectual bankruptcy of what they're trying to do, is that they're led by these clowns like Al Gore and John Kerry and Joe Biden," Steve Milloy, a senior legal fellow at the Energy & Environment Legal Institute and publisher of JunkScience.com, told Fox News Digital in an interview.

"They say such extreme things — and all the institutions, the government and the media. How do they ever walk any of that back?" he continued. "The answer is they can't. So, they've got to move forward providing cover."

Wharfie,
And I showed you that you were wrong. Your model can only be verified by the passage of time.
You keep repeating that point and ignoring my response.

It doesn't matter whether my model is verified to be accurate or not, because funding won't be based on that.

Instead, funding will be based on whether my predictions fit into the climate change narrative.

There's a LOT of money out there, and I feel like I can easily get my hands on a good chunk of it.

The only thing I'm missing is a background in climate science, but nothing a year or two of classes at Stanford can't make up for.
