During the doc, he made little graphics showing what part of the world, particularly North America, would be under water, and when.

These "but... Al Gore" arguments are bull#### non-arguments that typically appear on right-wing disinfo blogs.
Gore is
not a climate scientist, and he is certainly not any kind of authority on the matter.
For the record though, I don't recall him saying anything about parts of North America being under water "within 12 years". That idea is, at best, a brutal misinterpretation of what was actually said in the documentary, and at worst, just made up bull#### and a desperate attempt to try and discredit climate science.
