Never mind that there are more polar bears than ever...

Coca-Cola is evil, of course. You knew that, didn’t you?

If you did not know that, it is high time you found out.

This movie also provides an opportunity for Coca-Cola to help raise awareness about climate change and the perilous state of the polar bear.

LOL!

Polar bears thriving in the Arctic--defy extinction threat--stop drinking Coca-Cola
CHRIS MCAULEY, Telegraph

THE world’s polar bear population is on the increase despite global warming, which scientists had believed was pushing the animal towards extinction.

According to new research, the numbers of the giant predator have grown by between 15 and 25 per cent over the last decade.

Some authorities on Arctic wildlife even claim that hunting, and not global warming, has been the real cause of the decrease in polar bear numbers in areas where the species is in decline.

A leading Canadian authority on polar bears, Mitch Taylor, said: “We’re seeing an increase in bears that’s really unprecedented, and in places where we’re seeing a decrease in the population it’s from hunting, not from climate change.”

Mr Taylor estimates that during the past decade, the Canadian polar bear population has increased by 25 per cent - from 12,000 to 15,000 bears.

He even suggests that global warming could actually be good for the bears, and warns that the ever-increasing proximity of the animals to local communities could mean that a cull will be required sooner rather that later if bear numbers are to be kept under control.

In the northern territories, where temperatures have risen an average of four degrees since 1950, wildlife experts such as Mr Taylor say the bears have never been healthier or more plentiful.

The findings fly directly in the face of recent warnings from the scientific community on the demise of the species, with the Canadian World Wildlife Fund currently speculating that the last polar bear could vanish from the earth within 100 years....



A new survey of the number of polar bears in Canada's eastern Arctic suggests that the population
is thriving, not declining, because of mankind's interference in the environment.

So is that going to be Coca-Cola’s new mantra? Killing God for the Polar Bears?
