'Green crusader Al Gore was at the centre of a new spin row last night after he was caught out for a second time exaggerating the threat of global warming.In a keynote speech at the Copenhagen talks, the former U.S. vice-president claimed the North Pole could be completely free of ice by the middle of the next decade.
He claimed a study showed a ‘75 per cent chance’ that the Arctic could be ice-free in the summer months within five to seven years.
However, Dr Wieslaw Maslowski, the study’s author, said his research revealed ‘nothing of the sort’.

Dr Maslowski, of the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School in California, said: ‘I would never estimate likelihood at anything as exact as this. It’s unclear how this was arrived at.’
If 'global warming' is so demonstrably true - why all the lies and exaggerations from so many proponents of the hypothesis?
