It's summer 2017 and the Arctic was supposed to be ice-free, hurricanes were going to be more frequent and more deadly, and sea levels should be rising alarmingly. Al Gore swore in his 2006 science fiction movie, "An Inconvenient Truth," that within a decade there would be a "true planetary emergency."
"Unless we act boldly and quickly to deal with the underlying causes of global warming, our world will undergo a string of terrible catastrophes," said Gore in the movie's introduction.
The grand storyteller also predicted in 2011 that "there will be no more snows" on Mt. Kilimanjaro "within the decade."
Four years earlier, the Guardian of Britain reported that the United Nations was warning that we had "as little as eight years left to avoid a dangerous global average rise of 2C or more." Three years and more than 1,000 days ago, then French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius a socialist, of course advised us that "we have 500 days to avoid climate chaos."
We could go on. But we have neither the space nor time to rack up all the missed global warming predictions. So we will merely point out that instead of these disasters, we have the climate alarmist community admitting that there has indeed been a pause in the warming and that its models failed to predict it.
Yes, that's right. The alarmists are acknowledging in the abstract of a research paper that was published this month in Nature Geoscience that there have been "differences in model and satellite tropospheric warming rates."
On some level the admission is shocking. Yet we've long known that at some point the confession had to be made. The alarmists couldn't carry on the charade forever.

Still is!
Can anyone point to ANY GW prediction that has come fairly close? Seems like eventually one of those clowns would hit one.
GW has arrived in South TX, the older I get the more I am susceptible to Heat Rash, every year it is worse, therefore it must be Global Warming
listen... warming, cooling, it was 50/50. so i took a shot!!!
Then Al Gore should say it's even more important to lower CO2 levels, we don't want to freeze to death, do we?
Great point.
In fact every "prediction" seems to have gone the opposite way.
Increased Antarctic ice in the summer (our winter), where not one, but TWO research ships checking out the expected *loss* of ice got stuck... in ICE and had to be rescued.
We've had FEWER hurricanes, even though Gore promised more.
And the piece de resistance: Children won't know what snow is.
But the snowpack in the Sierra Nevadas was so great that it is filling up reservoirs in California as we speak.
Hell, Hawaii had record snow this past year.
And it snowed in the Sahara desert.
"I'm going to get rich on this!"
Sing along with me now to the tune of the song that never ends:
This is the crap that never ends,
I only lay it on my friends,
To believe you must be dense,
This is the crap that never ends.

Should include a time line.
This blasphemy can only be atoned for by the human sacrifice of even more unborn babies. Therefore a Planned Parenthood in every school.
There may come a time(probably will)when there are several bad weather sequences in a given period of time,& then these clowns like Gore will point to it & say “there,I told you so”. It may happen,but there is nothing that could be done to prevent it,no matter how much money we throw at it.
Yes. Definitely a timeline
Or there’s more to the story than CO2! :-)
That’s just too funny. Your quote really made me laugh. Thanks!

Face it - 'global warming' was a Russian disinformation scam to get the West to throw money away chasing rabbits down rat holes... Gore fell for it because he's an idiot... and he sooooooooo wanted it to be true.
