Do you remember all those forlorn pictures like this poor feller over here on the right that were publicized in every article just a couple of years ago.. The polar bear was running out of ice! Soon they would be extinct!! The canary in the coal mine!!!!
All those headlines... hmm, Very quietly, the feller up in Alaska that first spotted and reported all these drowned bears, (he was being paid the big bucks to manage a $50 million dollar group of studies.....) has been placed on 'administrative leave' for 'scientific misconduct' in his reporting.
His and his groups reports helped make the polar bear the poster child of Global Warming and jumped Al Gorebot and his sci-fi movie to the forefront..
It will be interesting to see how this plays out - because the public employees 'greenie' group is rushing to his defense. They not only want him rehired, they want an apology.......
Oh, and how are those poor cute little man killers doing...? Here's a report from the US Fish & Wildlife Service (released by the US Senate) that you probably haven't heard Katie Couric talking about:
"The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service estimates that the polar bear population is currently at 20,000 to 25,000 bears, up from as low as 5,000-10,000 bears in the 1950s and 1960s. A 2002 U.S. Geological Survey of wildlife in the Arctic Refuge Coastal Plain noted that the polar bear populations “may now be near historic highs.”
By the way, is there some kind of subliminal phallic symbol being used in that picture above?
