What studies like this really demonstrate is that charlatans can be paid to play scientist if they advance a political agenda with propaganda.

Can’t we round them up and put them in a giant freezer or something until this thing blows over?

I though AOC said the earth would cease to exist in 12 years (about 2 years ago). So what is this 2100 BS?

“Do they taste like chicken, turkey, duck or goose?”

More like Trumpeter Swan crossed with Spotted Owl.

S’okay. We’ll have AI and robotic penguins by then.

Well of course it’s bullshit but in any event the penguins would love it instead of freezing their asses off.

Haven’t they survived Antarctica being bare rock, for the most part? I wonder if their migration from rookery to open water was necessitated by the advance of the ice sheet.

They are very fat, probably taste fishy, as all they eat are fish and shrimp.
I would reckon, they are the food of last resort.

I often wonder if the dinosaurs where still living and we had a few volcanoes go off and the sun was stuck in a sunspot minimum seriously cooling the planet, would these morons advocate burning all the fossil fuels they could find to save the dinos from extinction.

It’s NOT news - it’s more stupid crystal ball reading disguised as ‘news’... shame on the fake scientist - shame on the idiot ‘journalist’...

Bu...bu...but experts today have reevaluated their 'data' and now say the penguins are dying, are you doubting the "Experts"? 😉
