Another word for "shit science" is "science denial". I personally prefer that one because it doesn't give even the slightest bit of indication that any sort of science is involved.

The laws of thermodynamics and the stefan boltzmann law are both great places to start to come to the conclusion that An Inconvenient Truth is really just A Convenient Lie (of omission).

The Church of Global Warming is a false religion.
No gas or vapor has the capability to warm the Earth, or to trap light or heat.
It is not possible to heat a warmer surface using a colder gas, or to create energy out of nothing.
It is not possible to measure the temperature of the Earth, the global CO2 content, the pH of the oceans, or the global sea level. Al Gore is flat wrong in "An Inconvenient Truth", and the entire movie is based on denying science and mathematics.
There is no "problem" to solve.
As I detailed in another post, EVs waste more energy than simply burning the gasoline in a car to make it move.
EVs also have the serious disadvantage of a long 'refueling' time. It takes hours (even possibly days!) to charge an EV battery from fully discharged to full. A typical EV has a range of 200 to 300 miles before requiring a full recharge to do it again. A gasoline car can be refueled in just a few minutes, effectively giving the gasoline car an effective range of infinite.
CO2 is an absolutely essential gas for life to exist on Earth. Without it, there is no plant life, and no other life either.

"An Inconvenient Truth" provides NO valid evidence for it's assertions. It quotes made up numbers as 'data'. It blatantly denies theories of science. It contains bad math.
Manufacturing numbers and using them as 'data' is not evidence. Ignoring theories of science is not evidence. Ignoring mathematics is not evidence.

...and with effectively infinite range?

I'll give you one example from his book. Gore calls the internal combustion engine the worst invention ever and a "mortal threat to humanity." This is so, over the top, scientifically illiterate, it sets the tone for the rest of his book which is largely fiction rather than factual science.
Alright, that does sound over the top, but I wasn't defending his book, just the Inconvenient Truth documentary.

It's full of the same sort of nonsense.
I could do this sort of thing too. Gore is a scientific illiterate. I even picked a video that isn't just anti-Gore and the movie, note that.

EV's are necessary to survive. EV's won't charge in Shitcago?! What are you talking about? I haven't seen nor heard anything or the sort

If by that you mean they are an important tool to implement tyranny, you are correct.
No gas or vapor has the capability to warm the Earth, Sock. You cannot create energy out of nothing. There is no 'battle of global warming', only the battle with fundamentalist religions like yours. EVs use about twice the energy of a gasoline car to travel the same distance. They are energy wasters. They take too long to charge. They are time wasters. They are expensive to repair and maintain. They are money wasters.

Not possible. The Inconvenient Truth documentary (movie) denies the same science and mathematics, quotes manufactured 'data', and makes the same over the top arguments.
I don't recall Gore ever saying something similar to cars being a "mortal threat to humanity" in An Inconvenient Truth. If there is any particular statement in the documentary that you have issue with, by all means present it, just as Gardner presented his point in relation to the book.
I suspect that the picture may be deceptive and it's actually a cable coming from the green cube -behind- the plastic gas canister.

In the UK, a lawsuit was filed against the government for using this film in public schools. The government lost the case.

Gore's climate film has scientific errors - judge
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2007/oct/11/climatechange
The movie, if shown, as a result has to be presented as a one-sided argument for climate change and the inaccuracies found by the court must be pointed out by teachers.
If anything, the Nobel prize committee, years on now, got another slapdown because of giving this schlock film an award.
The real inconvenient truth here is that nearly 20 years down the road, all of AlGore's predictions in the movie have failed to come true. The average psychic could have done better.
