Nobel-prizewinner Gores nine errors

Posted by Margaret on Friday, Oct 12, 2007

Former US-President Al Gore has won a Nobel prize for his Climate Change work, but presumably this won’t impress Dover school governor Stewart Dimmock, who tried to ban the film from being shown in schools. He didn’t succeed but a judge ruled that, if shown in schools, the film must be accompanied with guidance “giving the other side of the argument”, which will gladden the hearts of climate change deniers everywhere.

A High Court judge who ruled on whether climate change film, An Inconvenient Truth, could be shown in schools said it contains “nine scientific errors”.

Mr Justice Burton said the government could still send the film to schools – if accompanied by guidance giving the other side of the argument.
