Oh Noez! Polar Bears to be Extinct in 80 Years

[Weatherman2020]

Hotter seas threaten marine wildlife with extinction - researchers

LONDON, May 7 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Polar bears and other iconic animals could be extinct by the end of the century if ocean temperatures continue to rise at the current rate, marine biologists warned Monday.


So.

Why would they die in just a few generations? Fish and seals are there for food. Polar bears have been living in the San Diego zoo for decades, so warmth doesn’t harm them. The oceans are rising so that warmth is well hidden. So what’s going to kill them?


The absurdity of the chicken little left in their doomsday predictions is hilarious. They’ve been making this prediction for decades only to find their population increasing.

 

[JustAnotherNut]

Wasn't it several years ago, scientists were saying the Polar Bears were going extinct because of overfishing, human encroachment/loss of habitat, overhunting???

Pacific Ocean Heat Content During the Past 10,000 Years

"Abstract
Observed increases in ocean heat content (OHC) and temperature are robust indicators of global warming during the past several decades. We used high-resolution proxy records from sediment cores to extend these observations in the Pacific 10,000 years beyond the instrumental record. We show that water masses linked to North Pacific and Antarctic intermediate waters were warmer by 2.1 ± 0.4°C and 1.5 ± 0.4°C, respectively, during the middle Holocene Thermal Maximum than over the past century. Both water masses were ~0.9°C warmer during the Medieval Warm period than during the Little Ice Age and ~0.65° warmer than in recent decades. Although documented changes in global surface temperatures during the Holocene and Common era are relatively small, the concomitant changes in OHC are large."

Yes, only to find out those big bastards started taking fertility pills and breeding like crazy.

Not so sure you can hunt a polar bear, though.

Doesn't it have to do with the ice floes melting? That's where the bears do their "fishing," I think.

Not so sure you can hunt a polar bear, though.

I'm not sure either anymore but I think at one time it was legal......atleast for Native Americans. I may be wrong though IDK. BUT they were/are poached

If all the ice on earth melted you’d still have a shore. Seals and fish always stay close to shores.

And oceans are not rising.

How much of their food supply was lost from Fukushima? Dead sea lions washing on shore in California appear to have died from radiation poisoning

[TNHarley]

According to "international law" only indigenous people can hunt polar bears. No one else can, legally.

these idiots don't believe the natural instincts of the Polar would allow them to know to go where there is land. they think they are only at the north pole with Santa. And holy shit, what happens to Santa?

Even if oceans were rising,(not to say they are) it's probably more of displacement factor than ice melt. Displacement from garbage dumped, underwater volcanoes, etc

I don't think so. You can ignore the devastation Fukushima has caused but that doesn't mean it is fake when others publish what has happened to the oceans and the people affected by it.

I don't know. I thought I heard that somewhere. It's not like they were built to fish, like a seal or a pelican. They learned how because they live in a God forsaken place where nothing else lives, so they figured it out, like grizzlies catch salmon.

You don't have to go as far as Guam; just ask people living in Norfolk, Virginia if the sea is rising.
