No clue about those 2. You seem to have paid a lot more attention to either of them than I did so I can't really comment on any prediction they made.
I present empirical observations and try to avoid any studies. Studies can be argued with.
Outside of that, I'd think that you being an extreme numbers guy, that numbers would trump politics.
Gore & Kerry have been continuously QUOTING numbers from extreme numbers alarmists since even before 2005. Virtually nothing these guys have predicted have come to fruition. Climate has been changing since time began--in some periods and decades, more than others. Animals contribute to it, people contribute to it, and Mother Nature is the biggest contributor.
It's PEOPLE who figure things out and who are capable of making sensible changes if and when they're helpful, but there's no magic wand. In the face of any crisis, humans look to those who do not cry wolf or have meltdowns on camera. Hypocritical alarmists like Gore & Kerry only hurt their cause by making their agenda-driven predictions and claims and attributing it all to "science". We've seen Fauci disgrace himself by doing that. Remember, patience is a virtue.
