New Study Says Global Warming is Good for Polar Bears

The easiest way to take in this study is to take every one of those global warming propaganda posters of sad polar bears and draw a smile on that bear.

"A new study indicates that global warming may actually benefit Arctic animals and ecosystem, by expanding their ranges and increasing biodiversity in the area as warmer-climate species move north."

"They found that warming will actually bring in more species from further south, increasing biodiversity in the region. And, even in their worst-case scenario, they expect at most one species to go extinct: the Arctic fox. But, they suspect that this worst-case scenario is just that, a nightmare scenario unlikely to unfold."

"The researchers, from Umea University in Sweden, note that these cold-weather loving species that live in the Arctic are used to having to cope with a wide range of climactic conditions — they are relatively hearty creatures."

The amusing thing about this is that, like most global warming research, the new political orthodoxy is necessary to explain the thriving polar bear population.

Global Warming is the First Cause of the cult of the Flying Al Gore Monster and all things are explained in terms of the existence of it. Thus no matter what happens, it’s proof that Global Warming lets no sparrow or polar bear fall.

If polar bears are thriving… that is proof that Global Warming causes polar bears to thrive.

Polar bears are pretty bright animals. They go where they wish, eat what or who they want, and roll in the snow like it’s nothing!

Of course it is. There was this delicious Italian tourist a few years back who took advantage of the warm weather and optted to walk around in the open with nothing as heavy as a rifle...

Solar Bears.

Isn’t there some special funding for them?

Well somebody better get busy with warming it up for the bears, Russia is experiencing the coldest winter in years and it isn't exactly cozy in Alaska either.

Not sure but I hear they are gainfully employed at either Fredrick's of Hollywood or Victoria's Secret...

they call them “Teddy” Bears.

Isn't this the ultimate: We've gone from "Global Warming is killing off polar bears", to "The expanding polar bear population is proof of Global Warming".

Global warming is the ultimate scientific theory, EVERY observation gives proof of Global Warming.
