Healthy Polar Bear Count Confounds Doomsayers

The debate about climate change and its impact on polar bears has intensified with the release of a survey that shows the bear population in a key part of northern Canada is far larger than many scientists thought, and might be growing. The number of bears along the western shore of Hudson Bay, believed to be among the most threatened bear subpopulations, stands at 1,013 and could be even higher, according to the results of an aerial survey released Wednesday by the Government of Nunavut. The study shows that “the bear population is not in crisis as people believed,” said Drikus Gissing, Nunavut’s director of wildlife management. “There is no doom and gloom.” He said the media in southern Canada has led people to believe polar bears are endangered. “They are not.” He added that there are about 25,000 polar bears across Canada’s Arctic. “That’s likely the highest [population level] there has ever been.”

Compare and contrast the above with Batty Atty as per this comment from Lord Lawson last year:

Sir David Attenborough is one of this country’s finest journalists, and a great expert on animal life. Unfortunately, however, when it comes to global warming he seems to prefer sensation to objectivity. Had he wished to be objective, he would have pointed out that, while satellite observations do indeed confirm that the extent of arctic sea ice has been declining over the past 30 years, the same satellite observations show that, overall, Antarctic sea ice has been expanding over the same period. Had he wished to be objective, he would have pointed out that the polar bear population has not been falling, but rising.

Apparently the boat race stunt was due to an environ mentalist. Ho hum.

I think he is a lying filthy cretin responsible for thousands of deaths too, but unfortunately warmists use the 'maybe' words scattered throughout his report as a get-out clause for the lies and panic they spread

I just pray that one day they'll be held responsible for what they've done, but I imagine they'll get off with it

Yer, I had a quick chuckle, I'd like to see the research done/figures used by the reporter concerned, I'd hazard a guess there was none, and it was a warming factoid made up and tossed in for free!

No, you've all got it completely wrong.
Global warming causes more icebergs to be created but the sea's so hot now that they just melt before they hit anything.

It's a bit like the melting Arctic icecap, which at a mere minus 20C is like a freezer stuck on the defrost cycle, with bits of ice falling with a big plop into the bottom, to be melted away safely before her indoors has a chance to empty the cold atlantic waters from the drip tray.

Sometimes I think you lot haven't got the memo, so remember:

• Too hot: Global warming
• Too dry: Global warming
• Too cold: Global warming
• Too wet: Global warming
• Too many icebergs: Global warming
• Too few icebergs: Global warming
• Carbon credits rise: Global warming
• Carbon credits fall: Global warming
• Too few Polar bears: Global warming
• Too many Polar bears: Global warming

I can't imagine why this remained unsettled.

fk-it, I wish I was as clever as these environmentalists.

Boiling oceans of hydrochoric acid. Conc HCl I tells ya.

For fks sake............

This does make me smile (not in a good way..)

First, we are told by our 'better's' that uncontrolled immigration is good for the country, and we have more than enough room for all and sundry - and if we speak out against it, we get a knock on the door from the police..

Then, on the other hand, we're then told by our 'better's', the exact same ones who told us we need more immigration and that our infrastructure can handle it, that we cannot in fact handle it, and now have to conserve energy and water, as too many are using it - and it will all run out if we're not capped!

You couldn't really make it up....
