The polar bear scare failed so now its on to Penguins. The horror! We must save the Penguins by banning fossil fuels.
Just like the world wouldn’t exist in 2015, says Al Gore.
The Red Chinese would have them all for a snack.

I take that as the Chinese eating all the Emperor penguins - something the Chinese would find as a delightful new morsel to add to their diets: since a Chinese will eat anything that flies, except an airplane; anything with legs, except a table; and any thing that moves in the water, except a boat.
Their several hundred thousand militarized boats in their ‘fishing fleet’ would have no trouble harvesting all them - as they harvest everything wherever they ‘fish’.

There are polar bears in Alaska.
“The colony never recovered”
I call bullspit on this claim, doesn’t pass the smell test
Emperor penguins live 15-20 years in the wild and reach sexual maturity in 3-8 years. Meaning they reproduce for 7-17 years.
A years loss of chicks certainly would hurt, but it would not destroy a colony.
And given 2016 was 5 years ago, you haven’t even hit the peak time when those chick would have been part of the breeding population yet.. the colony certainly will recover in time. However that time will likely be after the lost generation has worked its way through the system
It is possible that year after year of such occurrences would eventually make the colony unviable, but a one time event like that will not. Given it’s been 5 years now since that event and it hasn’t happened again, claiming it’s likelihood will be routine going forward is conjecture not science
It isn't science. It is buffoonery.
Suppositions, based on assumptions, based on imaginings, run through a computer and declared to be fact.
Maybe they should work on learning to fly. They could find healthier climates.
Bad models imperil 100% of the climate forecasts by 2100.
Homosexuality may result in another sodom and Gomorrah event by 2100 too. If you guys stop sodomy then I will pay heed to your concerns about global warming.
Apparently the “polar bears are going extinct!” lie has lost it’s luster.
Now it’s penguins in the spotlight of victimhood.
The “useful idiots” think King Canute can tell the ocean tide to stop and not wet their feet.
The Marxists in charge laugh at them.
This is a species that has been around for 40 million years. Undoubtedly, in that time they’ve seen all sorts of “climate change” and obviously survived.
Shite happens. Too bad, so sad. Adapt and overcome. A thinning of the herd. MOVE!
I don’t hunt penguin. I don’t eat penguin. I don’t have/want penguins for pets.
Won’t there be more fish?
This is just more outright lies.
Well, this time they were smart enough to pick a date nobody would be alive to fact check.
Seems there are lots of places in Antarctica where it’s getting colder. Maybe the penguins need to move:
Never mind that emperor penguins’ hatcheries are actually quite far inland, and a lot of sea ice makes it harder to commute to/from the sea for food.
***Around 70% of colonies will be in danger sooner, by 2050. ***
According to “scientists”, we will be in a solar minimum by then. Get ready for “THE COMING ICE AGE” hysteria to return.
