What gets me about all this is that everyone rationalizes this BS as OK. The ends “cap and trade” justify the means “convincing people about global warming.”
As James Delingpole reveals, that polar bear image is fake. It’s been Photoshopped. Science subsequently admitted:
“The image associated with this article was selected by the editors. We did not realize that it was not an original photograph but a collage, and it was a mistake to have used it.”

#15 Better take another look at were the money is coming from.. Exxon total spending 22 million to study if AGW is true in the last 15 years.US alone and counting 79 BILLION in the last 10 years.. Canada 10 BILLION in the last 15 years.
Amazing how them Echocondriacs can make arm waving statements like ” the science is Solid” .. what science? give an example.. one not 10! They have been indoctrinated and have lost the power of thinking or to ask questions.Instead they have been trained to react to emotional science and regurgitate what they have been told.once in a while they get brave and come on a web site to type words like ” Deniers” and run to hide in a dark closet giggling while sucking their thumbs.
How the heck did I get such a bad reputation, not right wing, left wing, or idiot follower of any other dogma be it religous or scientific. Labels, a common tool for the mediocre mind.
You better believe we’re heading to an extinction level event, at least if you have the intention of surviving it. I’ve made preparations, maybe me and my family will have a chance.
In the face of so much serious stuff that’s going on right now, this global warming BS is trivial at best.
How many millions of barrels of oil can spill into the sea before the consequences are felt beyond the US and Mexico?
How long can false capitalism survive, when almost all small investors have lost confidence.
What does the recent increase in geological activity mean, is it related to the earth’s electromagnetic field, will the sun’s solar max in 2012 have an impact?
Rapture, rupture, whatever. It’s like Emilio Estevez says in Maximum Overdrive – ‘Jesus is coming, and he is pissed!’ Or maybe Hari Seldon was right and we’re all doomed puppets in the hands of psychohistory. Who cares, the important thing is to be aware of the increased level of danger to us all.
#31 – Skeptic of something or other,
Show me the conclusive raw science on Polar bears then.
I’m not sure why the obsession with polar bears in particular. It would be catastrophic for polar bears and those of us who love them to lose this unique and beautiful species. But, I don’t think they’re quite the keystone species that pteropods are, for example. Anyway, you asked, so here are a couple of articles. I don’t know how conclusive studies are at present at showing current decline in population. That they are dependent on sea ice, however, is abundantly obvious to anyone who knows anything about the species.

…and why aren’t you questing [sic] the alarmist statements regarding climate change in the mid west or the excessive money spent on skepticism? Better just to let them do their magic for you?
?en ingles por favor?
I have no idea what you’re trying to say in this paragraph. My quest is for the survival of a great many species I find far more beautiful than our own and upon which we depend for our very lives. Though is seems that many refuse to believe it and think that we can purify water and air and create top soil all by ourselves, among the many other services that a functioning biosphere provides.
This news is so old, it’s as old as many of us here, including John C D. THIS photograph is fake, has been known but that does NOT mean tons of other photos showing stupid polar bears in dire situations is. It is ONE chosen photo taken to represent what is going on. Yes, I would prefer it not be fake but that’s like telling Marketing and Sales to go screw itself and having they screw you instead.
As I’ve said in the past, the stupid polar bears should move more inland and change their diet to human, preferably human babies. They’re too stupid, that’s all. If your area has been fished out, follow the boats and take revenge!
I realize I’m late to this party. Very interesting conversation. Personally, I don’t think we are scientifically advanced enough to know for certain whether we are experiencing GW that is unusual to what has happened over the history of this planet, and whether or not it is man made, since we’ve only been around or such a small amount of time.
What I do know for certain is you can’t trust politicians. And they are the ones who will be passing laws on cap and trade. They will tax companies for doing something that may or may not be occurring. That extra expense will be passed on down to the consumer. And politicians will get richer and have more control over our lives. I also wonder, how much does the US military contribute to emissions?
