Inhofe: ‘Everything’ in Gore’s ’science-fiction movie’ has been refuted.

Inhofe: ‘Everything’ in Gore’s ’science-fiction movie’ has been refuted.

Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK), who has compared people who raise awareness about the climate crisis to the Third Reich, lied about former colleague Al Gore on the Senate floor today. He claimed that “everything” in An Inconvenient Truth — Vice President Gore’s Oscar-winning documentary on climate change — has “been refuted many times” by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC):

Now Al Gore’s done his movie, almost everything that’s been in his movie, in fact everything has been refuted. And interestingly enough the IPCC on sea levels and other things, scare tactics, used in that science-fiction movie have been totally refuted and been refuted many times by the — by the IPCC.

Watch it:

Of course, the IPCC — which shared the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize with Gore — has done no such thing. Go to the Wonk Room to read more about Sen. Inhofe’s climate falsehoods.
