Al Gore Just Went to Hollywood and Made One Prediction Proving Why No One Should Take Him Seriously

Al Gore just told a room full of celebrities the thing that blows up every prediction he has ever made.

The media was in that room and not one reporter asked the obvious follow-up question.

What he said on that stage changes everything you thought you knew about the climate racket.

The Ice Age Warning Nobody Questioned

Gore appeared last Thursday at the inaugural Sustainability in Entertainment Honors at Hotel Bel-Air in Los Angeles, flanked by The West Wing actor Bradley Whitford and an audience of Netflix executives and Hollywood environmentalists congratulating themselves on their climate commitments.

He invoked the 2004 science fiction film The Day After Tomorrow – a disaster movie about a Gulf Stream collapse triggering a catastrophic freeze – and told the room it was essentially a preview of coming attractions.

"That movie that I mentioned, The Day After about the Gulf Stream shutting down," Gore said, "well, this morning in one of the English newspapers is a whole big article summarizing the recent dire warnings of the scientists who found yet more confirmatory information that this is a very real threat within the next 25 years."

Whitford, feeding the moment, suggested it could put the world in an ice age in ten years.

Gore pushed back on the timeline but not the premise.

"It would be bad," Gore said. "It would be very bad and would be bad on a scale that is beyond anything we can compare it to today."

The theory goes like this: Greenland ice melt floods the North Atlantic with fresh water, disrupting the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation – the Gulf Stream – and cutting off the heat flow that keeps Europe and the Eastern seaboard temperate.

Gore insists it is a very real threat within the next 25 years.

He will be 103 years old when that deadline arrives.

The Track Record He Did Not Mention

Here is what the Hollywood audience was too polite to bring up.

In An Inconvenient Truth, Gore predicted global sea levels could rise as much as 20 feet in the near future, with dramatized footage of Miami and New York City going underwater.

Since 1880, global sea levels have risen 8 to 9 inches total.

At the rate NOAA actually measures, a 20-foot rise is more than a thousand years away.

He predicted Mount Kilimanjaro would lose all its snow by 2015.

Kilimanjaro was still logging roughly eight feet of snowfall annually as of late 2022.

He predicted Earth's ecosystems would hit a climate tipping point of no return within ten years of the film's 2006 release.

That deadline expired a decade ago.

At the 2009 Copenhagen Climate Conference, Gore told the audience there was a 75 percent chance the entire Arctic could be nearly ice-free in summer within five to seven years. When the British press reported that his source – Naval Postgraduate School researcher Wieslaw Maslowski – had never provided that specific probability figure, Gore's office acknowledged the 75 percent came from a casual conversation years earlier. Maslowski was blunter: he said he would never put an exact likelihood on something like that, and that his actual projection involved near-ice-free conditions, not a complete disappearance.

The Arctic still has summer sea ice.

This is the man Hollywood handed a microphone and a standing ovation.

The Grift That Keeps Moving the Deadline

Notice the pattern.

Every Gore prediction comes with a deadline far enough away that he escapes accountability in the moment – but close enough to feel urgent enough to act on now.

The 2006 tipping point? Ten years out. The Arctic ice? Five to seven years. Now the Gulf Stream collapse? Twenty-five years.

The man is 78 years old. He will almost certainly not be alive to answer for it.

Meanwhile, the private-jet-flying, mansion-owning climate crusader continues collecting speaking fees and demanding that everyone else sacrifice.

Gore told a recent interviewer that the warnings from An Inconvenient Truth "were proven dead right."

He said this out loud.

He is still telling the story.

He is still moving the deadline.

And Hollywood is still giving him the room.
