Setting the record straight on purported “errors” in “An Inconvenient Truth”

On the RealClimate web site, scientists Gavin Schmidt and Michael Mann set the record straight on what a UK judge recently termed “errors” in the film “An Inconvenient Truth” (while approving its continued use in classrooms). “It is clear that the purported ‘errors’ are nothing of the sort,” Schmidt and Mann say, in a point-by-point discussion. A useful corrective, because of course global warming denial machine fossil-fool politicos and junk lawsuit filers used the UK judge’s remarks to support their usual wrong-headed hype (here and here, for example) and outright demagoguery (here, for example).
