Al Gore invokes disaster film, warns of ice age within 25 years
Washington Times ^ | 25 Apr 2026 | Washington Times News Desk

Former Vice President Al Gore warned a Hollywood audience Thursday that a Gulf Stream collapse could occur within 25 years, remarks that came 20 years after his climate documentary “An Inconvenient Truth” drew criticism for predictions that did not bear out.

Mr. Gore, 78, appeared at the inaugural Sustainability in Entertainment Honors, co-hosted by The Hollywood Reporter and the Sustainable Entertainment Alliance at Hotel Bel-Air in Los Angeles. He participated in a keynote conversation with actor Bradley Whitford of “The West Wing,” timed to the 20th anniversary of “An Inconvenient Truth.”

According to a Breitbart account of the event, Mr. Gore invoked the scenario depicted in the 2004 disaster film “The Day After Tomorrow” — though he repeatedly referred to it as “The Day After,” the title of a separate 1983 television film about nuclear war — saying a shutdown of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, commonly called the Gulf Stream, is “a very real threat within the next 25 years.”

I wish they’d make up their minds. They’re starting to sound like Robert Frost’s poem, ‘Fire and Ice’.

I think I will start making predictions about events that will happen after I have shuffled off this mortal coil. If I am wrong, what would I care?

The ultimate authority on all questions involving life on earth, Al Gore, is now declaring that global warming is out, and global freezing is in. Safe bet that he found a whole new angle to line his pockets off the climate grift.

After his defeat in 2000, Gore should have taken up golf, stamp collecting, or working for Habitat for Humanity.

This AH is a true believer. If he would trust in Jesus just half as much as he believes his own lies, his world would be a much better place.

As it is, these people have no shame. Not one “prophecy” he utters has ever borne fruit but does he pivot?? Nope. Needs the money from stupid people I guess. You know, to “carry on his work” 😉

Sorta like when the FBI leaks made up info to the press. The press writes articles based on the leak. The FBI uses the articles to justify proceeding.

The Ice Age will cool down the several million degree interior of the earth that Al informed us of in 2009.

“Why is it always 25 years away?”

Statute of limitation for Misrepresentation, money laundering and wire fraud is my guess

I don’t think he’s so much a ‘true believer’ as one of many who have found a lucrative scam.

If we’re talking about a new Ice Age, shouldn’t we be pouring CO2 into the air with IC Engines, the bigger the better?...........😎

Of course he has to invoke a fake, fantasy disaster movie to sell his fake, fantasy impending disaster to the fake, fantasy elite of Hollywood.

Perfect.

This AH is a true believer.

In that he can get money out of people, yes.

In the global nonsense he is pushing?

Not a chance.

Otherwise he would lead by example.
