Polar bears are at risk of dying off if humans don't reverse the trend of global warming, a blunt U.S. government report filed Thursday said.
"The single most important step for polar bear conservation is decisive action to address Arctic warming," the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said in a draft recovery plan, part of the process after the agency listed the species as threatened in 2008.
"Short of action that effectively addresses the primary cause of diminishing sea ice, it is unlikely that polar bears will be recovered."
Halting Arctic warming will require a global commitment, said Jenifer Kohout, the Fish and Wildlife Service's regional program manager and a co-chair of the polar bear recovery team.
"In the meantime, the Fish and Wildlife Service and its partners are committed to doing everything within our control to give the bears a chance to survive while we await global action," she said during a teleconference Thursday.

a blunt U.S. government report filed Thursday said "Blunt," as in stupid, dull, simple-minded, inaccurate? Like that?

Nonsense, the left never lets up. It's the same tactic ad infinitum.

Just more of the same ol’ same ol’. Repeat a lie enough, and eventually it becomes the truth.

WHAT? The last unbiased study had polar bears breading out of control. The darn things are everywhere!
The "poor polar bears" propaganda was from Al Gores fright flick. (Of course, it also said we'd all be drown by 2015.)
Sheesh. I can't believe they're bring back that old, outdated crap again.

Such good little “Stewards of the Environment” they’re even recycling their BS news stories.
