Greenpeace Arctic mission to spotlight polar bears (http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews.aspx?type=scienceNews&storyid=2006-04-13T232204Z_01_N13348303_RTRUKOC_0_US-ENVIRONMENT-POLARBEAR.xml)


"Two U.S. explorers plan to start a four-month summer expedition to the North Pole next month to gather information on the habitat of an animal they believe could be the first victim of global warming--the polar bear."

"Project Thin Ice 2006" will be the first such expedition since 2004. Reuters explains that the explorers had to call off the mission they planned last year because of...
Drum roll, please.

"...unusually heavy snow and ice."
LMAO!

I want to sue Ford.. for the last 4 meltings of the ice cap. Even thought they didn't exist I blame them and Bush.

Bush used his time machine to wipe out all the ice 4 times before in the past just to mess with our heads.

Violent, short swings in weather, extreme cold and heat, are supposedly part of the global warming syndrome.

The plight of the polar bears is real. They can swim 30 - 50 miles!!! for food, but they MUST find food at the end of the swim.

They can't swim 80 miles, and apparently some have been found 80 miles from closest ice or land.

Anyway, who the fuck needs large mammals that enrich human experience?

Yeah... they enrich human experience so long as they are on TV.

If you were 30 yards from them... you would enrich THEIR experience...

You still don't have a point.

YV does make an effort, he's wrong as shit, but at least he's serious. The rest of you red-state dubya-suckers are just trivial, joker assholes.

Hell most of the pro climate warmers never even acknowledge we had
an ice age on earth and somehow it melted, without human help.

Same verse, different song, played on a regular basis. Clean air is now
suppose to be causing some global warming, water causes global warming,
but we all know the real culprit is all those SUV's that they drive here in
the USA, no one else can cause problems, just us. And we can solve it
all if we just go back to gathering food in the forest, so long as we don't
destroy any trees or plants, live in caves, sleep cold, no fires. And
practice birth control and have medicine men for all citizens. Or we can
just give all our money to the third world nations and everything will be
okay, cause we bought those carbon thingies. And don't forget, if it
doesn't work out they way the "progressive thinkers" say it will, it is okay.
Because they tried and had good intentions. You know like
"war on poverty", National health, and our last amnesty program sponsored
by our good liberal Senator from Mass. Teddy (water boy) Kennedy.

I'm actually just someone with common sense.

Seals have their pups on ice floes, that's why polar bears swim to them.

I would be more concerned for seals that would be forced to have their pups on land than I would be for Polar bears.

No ice floes makes it easier for polar bears to find seal pups to eat.
