Climate change is a hotly debated issue, no pun intended. No matter which side of the fence you’re on, it’s something that can’t be ignored both physically and on a political level. We’re forced to deal with a slew of information, some of which borders on apocalyptic, with regards to the world’s changing climate and how it will affect humanity, the economy, and future generations, on a daily basis.

But is all the panic warranted? Are the predictions of mass destruction from certain political figures based on fact? Or are they blown out of proportion to suit an agenda? Take a look at the most prevalent political icon known for his strong opinion on climate change and global warming.

In 2006 ex-vice president Al Gore starred in a badly disguised political campaign of a movie, An Inconvenient Truth, which followed him on a journey to ‘educate’ the masses on the threat of global warming and climate change.

While his pursuit seems noble – we should all concern ourselves with planet Earth and its workings – it is ultimately motivated by financial and political gain. Take for example the fact that a high court judge found nine scientific errors within the film itself, some of which were framed in “the context of alarmism and exaggeration.”
