How accurate were Al Gore's climate predictions in his 2006 documentary 'An Inconvenient Truth'?

Nearly 20 years after the release of Al Gore's 'An Inconvenient Truth,' climate scientists are evaluating which predictions were accurate and which were not. The film is frequently cited by climate change deniers as evidence that climate change is a hoax, based on perceived failed predictions. However, as the speaker notes, scientific understanding is complex and requires nuance, which can be difficult to convey in an entertaining documentary format. The analysis shows that while some predictions may have been overstated for dramatic effect, the documentary did correctly identify key climate change trends occurring today.
