Al Gore's climate change film 'is propaganda'

Al Gore's climate change documentary contains serious scientific inaccuracies political propaganda and sentimental mush the High Court in London has heard.

The attack came as Stewart Dimmock 45 a father of two challenged the Government's decision to provide every secondary school in England with a copy of the former American vice-president's film as part of an environmental campaign.

Paul Downes appearing for Mr Dimmock argued that the key flaw of the film was that it was partisan aimed at influencing rather than informing and lacked balance. Mr Dimmock a lorry driver who has children aged 11 and 14 wants the court to declare that the Government acted unlawfully and quash the decision to authorise distribution to more than 3500 schools.

Speaking before the case Mr Dimmock from Dover said: Climate change is important but it should be taught to children in a neutral and measured manner. Indoctrinating school children in this manner is unprecedented and unacceptable. The hearing continues.
