You are likely thinking of ‘nuclear winter’ scenarios that might have resulted from a nuclear war. Screaming that someone is wrong doesn’t make it so. It just makes you look childish.

Gore’s better because its based on real climate science. There is no debate for or against amongst scientists as you can see here from NASA: http://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus

Use the the skeptical science link I provided above. It is by far the best and most up to date but can be technical since its by climate science experts. Can also try this new site: Climate Reality http://climaterealityproject.org/

No scientist would have said ice caps would melt in 20 years – and certainly not in the 1970s. So I don’t know who told you all these other things but it certainly wasn’t scientists or anyone with real knowledge of those subjects. You appear to be the one exaggerating. FYI Its always been called climate change.

In the 80′s we were told the Amazon rain forest would be completely gone in 15 years, but it’s still there. In the 90′s we were told global warming was out of control and we would have 100+ degree temperatures year round in twenty years, but it never happend.
The problem with the climate change community is they lie and exhagerate to scare people into getting their way, but it doesn’t work and when the predicted catastrophies don’t happen they look stupid. They don’t even call it global warming anymore, now they call it climate change so any type of weather can fit their propaganda.
