If you believe this than there is no hope for you as a human being with a brain. Jennifer is right on.

Climate Gate propaganda. Incredible!!! Speaks for itself:

Katrina,

Can you please provide us with figures indicating past and present polar bear populations?

Katrina,

Whether you like it or not, Polar Bears are not endangered. They are designated as “Threatened” in the US and “A species of concern” in Russia.

How many polar bears are there?

Scientists estimate that there are between 20,000 to 25,000 polar bears.

This number should be compared to the number in the 1960’s when the worldwide population was about estimated at 1600. So they have not done badly considering all the global warming that has been happening. Maybe they llike it a bit warmer.

ref: http://www.polarbearsinternational.org/faq/#q2

And a quote:

“Scientists predict that, if current warming trends continue in the Arctic, two-thirds of the world’s polar bears could disappear by 2050.”

So somewhere in the region of 6000-8000 will still be alive even if we do nothing about global warming. Not so alarmist now is it? The number does not even reduce to 1960’s levels.

My take on this: expect Polar Bear populations to decrease. Soon. They will be “made” to decrease to support the theory. Case closed and the “science” is settled.

Glad I didn’t get a degree from U of A.

They know we all know the population is growing in robust numbers. – Henry Chance

Really Henry? Can you please provide us with peer-reviewed literature from each of the polar bear populations? I look forward to seeing these figures from polar bear researchers that apparently support your argument. In the meantime, please refrain from using the royal “all” in your flawed debate.

The psychology of deceipt. The Mann made global warming crowd do not want the expert there. It is human nature to dread eye contact with someone you have either disparaged or that has exposed your dishonesty. This is how immature people show avoidance behavior.
It escalates into greater fear. what if he accidently slipped in a question that exposed error or a false claim? Scary.

Put yourself in sod’s shoes. You use the polar bear as a shield to protect your dogma. You predict it will become extinct and is dying off in great numbers in front of our eyes. They know we all know the population is growing in robust numbers.

Luke:

I will rise to your bait.

Climate realists observe the real world and evidence of climate from the real world.
They assess reality, and all evidence from reality shows that there is no evidence that AGW exists at a detectable magnitude.

AGW-advocates consider climate models and out puts from those models.
They pretend virtual reality is a cause to be afraid because the models are poor emulations of reality.

Hence, I suggest that those who reject the dogma of anthropogenic (i.e. man-made) global warming (AGW) should be called climate realists.

Luke, I assume we can agree this suggestion because it is factual and value-free.

Sod, your long dissertation on the circumstances of Taylor’s omission convinces me that the man was cut with a scalpel rather than bludgeoned with a rusty pole. Big deal.

AGW’ers, ecomentalist’s and other leftie loonies should always remember what happened to the pigs in Animal Farm…
