For the most part, the Arctic is a desert...

Let a creationist suggest this, and there would be no end of ridicule. But let a leftist-approved scientist say the same thing, and the reaction is "hmmm...really...you don't say...interesting".

Having worked there for a couple years, yes, the Arctic most certainly is a desert.

“The giant mammals would likely have measured up to 3.5m (11ft) in height and had one hump in which they stored fat to help them survive in the Arctic, at a time when the region was less cold than today and covered with forest, researchers said.”

“...less cold”?? Who writes this stuff? Why not just say warmer? Poor George Orwell would protest.

if it wasn’t cold, then why the need for extra fat? adn if there WAS a need for extra fat, why put it all in one place, rather than all around? hmm???
