“These interactions will only become more frequent as climate change becomes more severe.”

No I don’t believe it. Rather these interactions will become less frequent...

Looks like polar bears aren’t going extinct; so, presto chango, climate change causes more polar bear attacks!

Simply Irrefutable by Al Gore
(apologies to Robert Palmer)

How can it be testable
It compromise my principle
That kind of proof is mythical
It’s anything but typical
It’s a craze you’d endorse, it’s a powerful force
You’re obliged to conform when there’s no other course
Climate change looked good to me, but now I find it

Simply irrefutable
Simply irrefutable

Its forecasts are so powerful, huh
No polar bears in five years
Or else polar bear attacks, we fear
And gone the summer Arctic ice
Or maybe not, it’s a role of the dice
Still, it deserves the applause, I surrender because
Climate change looked good to me, but now I find it …

Simply irrefutable
Simply irrefutable

Simply irrefutable
(It’s so fine, there’s no tellin’ where the money went)
Simply irrefutable

Its methods are inscrutable
The proof is undeducible, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
And now we have extinction, huh
And refugees and starvation, yeah yeah
We’ll soon be under water
We gotta do what we aught-ta
Give up plastic and eating beef
Eat bugs instead, save coral reef
No nuclear or hydro dams
Put windmills all o’er the lands
Ef the birds, it’s them or us
Point two degrees centri-gus

Climate change used to look good to me, but now I find it …
Simply irrefutable
(it’s so fine, there’s no tellin’ where the money went)
Simply irrefutable
(it’s all fine, don’t ask about the heat island effect)
Simply irrefutable
(it’s all fine, don’t ask about counter-evidence)
Simply irrefutable

The Thunberg crowd is banging their war drums....soon they will sacrifice Thunberg to the nearest volcano, if a polar bear doesn’t eat her first.

REMEMBER.....”RUN FOR YOUR LIVES” (sarc.)

Polar bear attacks are becomming more common because POLAR BEARS HAVE BECOME MORE COMMON. The fools blaming this on warming are blathering idiots.

According to the CDC (Biden's FBI buries the data now) there were approximately 25,559 homicides in the US in 2021.

There were 6 fatal bear attacks in North America in 2021.

Primates are the most dangerous animals in the world, and it isn't even close.

Despite a bumper crop of acorns last autumn, my squirrels have been very aggressive when it comes to raiding my bird feeders. I don’t dare approach one without a treat. Or a bb pistol.

It’s rare for polar bears to attack people until it happens. The only good bear is a dead bear.

The list of calamities NOT caused by climate change is very short. Something is rotten in Denmark.

Data is NOT the plural of anecdote.

The population of polar bears was was estimated at 5,000 to 10,000 in the 1970s. Today, the number of polar bears is estimated at 22,000 to 31,000. The 1973 International Agreement on the Conservation of Polar Bears and the resulting significant reductions in hunting of polar bears is largely responsible for those gains.

Polar bears are hypercarnivorous apex predators and the largest extant land carnivore. The environment will not support dense populations of such predators. Therefore, polar bears are non-territorial, and live solitary lives, except for mating season, and the two years a sow spends raising her cubs.

Polar bears are stealth hunters who mostly rely upon their superb sense of smell. While fearless, well fed polar bears avoid humans and rarely attack unless they are provoked.

Unfortunately, most polar bears are hungry at any given time, and humans are just another species of prey, although one with low caloric value compared to their regular diet.

Unlike other bears who may attack, maul, their victim, and then leave, polar bear attacks on humans are predatory, usually fatal, and they will consume their victim.

The earth’s climate is always changing, human beings, indeed all of life, is neither the cause of, nor has any effect on climate change.

First time in 30 years and suddenly it’s because of climate change. These media people really are obtuse and credulous.

Because this is Yahoo, millions of young people will see it on their cell phones today and accept it as gospel truth.

These cell phones kids cling to these days as if they are a life support system are far more dangerous to the future of this country than anything the MSM is broadcasting on TV.
