How accurate were Al Gore's climate change predictions in 'An Inconvenient Truth' nearly 20 years later?

Al Gore's predictions in 'An Inconvenient Truth' show a mix of accuracy and oversimplification when analyzed 20 years later. One claim under scrutiny is the prediction that New York City would be underwater, which referenced a simulation showing flooding reaching the World Trade Center site. The analysis reveals that science is complex and requires nuance, which is challenging to convey while making information entertaining. The evaluation, conducted at the American Museum of Natural History, aims to separate what Gore got right from what he got wrong. This retrospective highlights how climate science communication often struggles to balance scientific accuracy with engaging presentation, while emphasizing the importance of carefully examining climate change predictions.
