Scientist confesses he made up polar bear population estimates
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/...estimates.html
![]() Scientist confesses he made up polar bear population estimates Thomas Lifson May 31, 2014 The greatest scientific fraud in history is slowly but surely unraveling, and the breadth of the corruption revealed is stunning. As any good con man knows, and emotional appeal is necessary, and the warmists found their cuddly-looking icon of endangerment in the polar bear, an animal frequently chosen as stuffed toys for children to hug. Pictures of polar bears on ice floes, presumably doomed to death by drowning as the Arctic ice disappeared, were used to tug on the heartstrings of adults and children alike, in order to scare them into willingly handing over power over their economic destiny to global mandarins who would reduce their standard of living. But it was necessary to come up with “scientific” estimates of polar bear populations that showed them in danger. With all the billions of dollars available for global warming-related research, and the level of peer pressure that money generates, it wasn’t that difficult. Polar bear populations became the centerpiece of the effort to fight global warming due to claims that melting polar ice caps would cause the bears to become endangered in the near future. Years ago some scientists predicted the Arctic would be virtually ice free by now. Polar bears became the first species listed under the Endangered Species Act because they could potentially be harmed by global warming. But some recent studies have found that some polar bear subpopulations have actually flourished in recent years. As with the hockey stick graph and many other elements of the concocted story, honest scientists working in the finest tradition of skeptical scientific inquiry, started to unravel fuzzy numbers and lies. One such hero is polar bear scientist Dr. Susan Crockford, who publishes the website Polar Bear Science. In it she documents how a scientist responsible for an alarmist lowball estimate of polar bear population is backing away from numbers that she has been questioning: Quote:

I think most people fall under this category.
We have the ability to do the right thing without getting scammed through things such as "carbon credits", but the massive scare-tactic ****sticks out there such as Al Gore are hurting the process a lot more then they are helping. |

Second, Al Gore is not a climate scientist. He's a politician. And a bad one at that. He's not "Teamed up" with shit, except his own political agenda. Anybody claiming Gore is the face of climate change is just flat wrong. Third, Gore hasn't even kept the money he made from his political scare tactics. Al Gore donates all of the proceeds from both the book and DVD of An Inconvenient Truth to environmental causes. He also donated 100 percent of his Nobel Peace Prize award as well as the salary from his venture capital firm, Kleiner Perkins Caulfield & Byers, to the Alliance for Climate Protection. Click the links if you don't believe it. The reality is actually that much more money goes into climate change denial. Funded by energy corporations. http://www.independent.co.uk/environ...s-1891747.html And this thread is proof how many have swallowed their load.

And if it's as big a deal as the liberals are saying ("going to end the planet"), then I'd think they'd be willing to go to war with the worst offenders on "the planet" - the Chinese - so far, all papers and no bullets. Perhaps they're scared, I don't know, but if they think global warning is really as bad as they say, and we only have seconds to survive it, I'm pretty sure they risk war to fix the world's #1 offender. |

Furthermore, neither liberals, nor actual climate scientists are saying we're going to end the planet. Not in the slightest. The human race is in absolutely no danger of extinction over climate change. Even if we did absolutely nothing, the world isn't going to burst into flames and kill everyone. That mindset is only coming from climate change denial organization or insane fear mongering politicians. Things could get nasty in many ways regarding the planet, and it could cost us lots of money to mitigate and adapt. That's the main concern. A Rhode Island Jr. Senator made a pretty good speech to the Senate on the misinformation job that's happened regarding climate change, and it didn't get nearly enough coverage as it should have. If you actually want to hear the other side, read through this. It's a quick read and very informative. http://www.whitehouse.senate.gov/new...climate-change

Lighten up a bit, he's due his opinion... In the science thread I love his posts, so he and I can agree to disagree on this one...
