Polar Bears On Thin Ice (CBS News)

[manosmodularsystems]

Atmospheric CO2 levels have dropped by 3000 percent through the past 1.6 million years. Average global temperatures have declined by 10F degrees during the same period. Double those figures when looking beyond 200 million years ago. "We have vastly increased the amount of carbon dioxide- the most important of the so-called greenhouse gases." ~Al Gore Your GUILT is being used to make power and VAST wealth for men who are lying to you! MAKE THEM STOP! TELL THEM YOU WON'T BE USED ANYMORE!!!

[bonds911]

finally cbs gives out some true important news

[evilportrait]

CBS News once again has ZERO real facts about the Polar Bear Issue. The population has actually INCREASED!

I'm baffled that ANYONE would EVER believe in something as ridiculous as "global warming", especially after viewing CBS News' artificial "slides" of the ice vanishing over the years. It just makes me ill that our President is busy trying to pass bills regarding this. What ever happened to common sense?

CBS News is a terrible station.

[evilportrait]

HEY PARENTS!! Did you know your children may be exposed to CBS News in their SCHOOL CLASSROOMS? CBS news produces a children's newscast (biased and Democratic) and millions of children view the program daily at school.

[sasktank]

in Canada the bear's are not on the endangered list - and theyre numbers are rising --- does the greenpeace helicopter run on granola ?

[TheSkrunkyMonkey]

/watch?v=gVXAhIvbbLk

watch my video please =D itsa about global warming, its pree good and if you care about the planet youll take time to watch

[imbrd]

"climate change: is co2 the cause?"

[saskatoonsafetyguy]

HA HA HA !!! The CBS people must feel pretty stupid knowing that the polar bear population is increasing and has been consistently for over fifty years!

Ten years of global cooling and counting!

[Melissa4U1987]

@saskatoonsafetyguy someone needs a reality check >:(

[smcnallen]

@saskatoonsafetyguy

The truth is, 2010 was the hottest year on record (according to both NASA and NOAA). The decade from 200 to 2010 was the hottest decade. Of the 12 hottest years on record, all have occurred since 1997. The heating is real. As a Canadian, you may be interested to know that the Hudson Bay polar bear colony has declined 22% since the 1980's. I'm not some radical leftist and have never voted for Al Gore, for what it's worth.

[ShugaBaby101]

@saskatoonsafetyguy okay the pop'n of them increasing, doesn't erase the fact that there are very few snow ice for the polar bears to hunt and/or travel.

[GreggaryPeccary]

Now oil spills are the problem...

[viddrome]

I want to shoot one of these before they're all gone.

[tomhaley52]

This would really be compelling - if the polar bear population wasn't exploding. Too bad CBS doesn't know how to fact check.

[WolYou]

tomhaley52: The polar bear populations hasnt "exploded". What happens is that a lot of bears are migrating to places where people live, because their ice is gone. So what explodes is the perception of polare bears, not their total number.

[TheCinemaization]

Poor polar bears.

[coveredinsevindust23]

All models are wrong!!! Especially Paris Hilton

[sk84damonay]

this is stupid. global warming is a myth. all the ice melted in the ice age before we were here. its just stupid. think about that.

[hamniz]

that's not true, ice age does not just happened on north and south poles, it happen most of the world.

[RomyBaz09]

ye ther wer periods of warming in the past, but nothing to this extreme.....

[evilportrait]

@sk84damonay Yep, there's not much logic or reason involved. If CBS says "Scientists now say 'global warming' is undeniable", well, I guess it is set in stone........YEAH RIGHT!

What a corrupt 'news' program.

[IamVendel]

If the argument is Melting ice=Bad for Polar Bear then they have no argument at all.

Arctic ice coverage was as great in 2008 as it has been in decades.

[bw01a]

And if polar bears disappear from the earth what would happen? Nothing, humans would go on living like normal. One of those things would bite your face of the first chance it got anyway. This is all about liberal leaders stirring up crazy emotions in people so they can force their anti-capitalist agenda on people, just listen to what the lawyer babe says in the vid.

[thedundeeprincess]

we humans will become extinct our selves some day too..and there will be another kind of species to take over from us..and the planet will just all start to rot when were gone

[evilportrait]

@bw01a Thank-you! If they find a way to bring out emotion in people, they are likely to believe a bunch of crap!

[vaheara]

VVVV lol

[tristanlist]

Polar bears are brutal, bloody beasts with no souls. I don't see a strong reason for their continued existence. I hope that when they finally die off, we get up there with our jackhammers and concrete and build Wal-Marts over their corpses. Unlike polar bears, humans have a destiny: to spread civilization, justice, and Everyday Low Prices to the darkest corners of the earth.

[OboePlaya14]

YOU are horrible!!!!!!!learn to accept all creatures!!!!!

[zevers356]

I love and Accept all creatures... They're delicious!

[kianairis]

we aren't even helping..its sad. we are ruining their lives and ours.

[zevers356]

of course, because if the polar bears die, how can we continue living???

[evilportrait]

@kianairis If you are suggesting humans are heating the Earth, that is unproven. CBS "News" has no real facts.

[juliastory]

this just makes me cry. -sob-

[caseydebella93]

i wish i was a polar bear so i could fight a giraff.?

[BogusLarry]

Wah ha ha!!! I dont know why but I found that comment halarious.

[xxfcukndcxx]

wut r u a scientist?

[mknapp62]

The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service estimates that the polar bear population is currently at 20,000 to 25,000 bears, up from as low as 5,000-10,000 bears in the 1950s and 1960s. A 2002 U.S. Geological Survey of wildlife in the Arctic Refuge Coastal Plain noted that the polar bear populations may now be near historic highs.

[to88he]

This is bullshit, it may be true that the ice is melting but that have happened several times before. Maybe we just entering a new warmer period in history. To blame humans for all the so called "global warming" is wrong, solar activity has a lot to do with it, and many other things as well, such as the earth's inclination or the magnetic points of the poles. And by the way, there are more polar bears today than 40 years ago.

sorry for bad english.

[evilportrait]

@to88he I like your comment. :)

[WeaponInHand]

Small minded wonder you are blazing64....it's people like you that make me not want to share oxygen.

[fuzzcheese111]

true dat

[blazing64]

this is bullshit, the earth has been changing before humans were around, ...get something else to fight for

[sk84damonay]

aint that right though, the ice has been melting before we were on earth. think about the ice age and how it all melted. some ppl are dumb

[OliI0305]

I am shocked by the callous, hateful nature of some of the comments on here.

It is disturbing and disgusting.

I am absolutely shocked and horrified.

[chubbypekingnese]

I guess you dont go on the net much

[OliI0305]

HA! I guess not! Lucky for me.

[ridethepig17]

fucking polar bears what have they ever done. all their good for is nice carpets. also gays are sinners

[iluvmileycyrus0812]

you shut the hell up!! i cant wait to make you a carpet!!! GOd made animals and made you you!! so shut up!!

[ridethepig17]

i have polar bear underwear and it is possibly the most comfortable thing ever. I suppose your against hunting to? you know what, i'm intitled to being able to kill animals and gay people as much as i want.

shit like them, and you, are the scum of the earth.

so up yours!

and i masterbate to miley cyrus ALL THE TIME!

[iluvmileycyrus0812]

well thats so freakin rude. you are a barfbag. and you dont do much to earth either except were your little polar bear underwear. so i guess we should hunt you and make sure you go extinct. you scum. go away.

[circusboy90210]

hey the world does not end when species go extint life goes on nature abhores a vaccum and other thigns will fill in the gap. personally I will not loose one bit's sleep. I'm getting tired of seeing videos of bears swimming like it's a bad thing. they regularly have allways swum up to 80 miles to find food. don't believe the hype.

[lovestopsfear]

you are completely out of touch with nature and that you and everyone else depends on the web of life. polar bears are drowning at record rates. they are an indicator species--meaning if they go down, it indicates that we're in deep caca. you sound selfish and ignorant, i hope you choose suicide.

[circusboy90210]

oh well did you know polar bears routinely swim 80-150 miles daily. the population is increasing not decreasing.every species is an indicator how ever the loss of one is not particularly harmfull. yoursuch a fearmongering alarmist, get with the moment & forget all yhis 5 million possibilotys that mostlynever happen

[lovestopsfear]

totally not true. do a bit more research. polar bears evolved to swim between short distances ice sheets. don't you think they'd at least have flippers if they swam 150 miles a day? use some common sense.

[circusboy90210]

Constantine John Phipps was the first to describe the polar bear as a distinct species.[1] He chose the scientific name Ursus maritimus, the Latin for 'maritime bear',[7] due to the animal's native habitatThe polar bear is an excellent swimmer and individuals have been seen in open Arctic waters as far as 200 mi (320 km) from land. With its body fat providing buoyancy, it swims in a dog-paddle fashion using its large forepaws for propulsion.[42] Polar bears can swim 6 miles/hour. the facts jack

[lovestopsfear]

oh so convincing. you said polar bears swim up to 150miles per day. at 6 miles per hour thats 25hours. 80 miles would be 13 hours a day. do you really think polar bears regularly swim most of the day and all night? they are drowning in increasing numbers--which is extremely rare for these creatures. why is this so hard to accept?

[circusboy90210]

LANETARY SANITY CHECK: The population of Polar Bears in the US and Canada has increased by 300% in the past 40-odd years. It's worth bearing in mind that a mere 8000 years ago ALL the Arctic sea ice melted. Polar Bears managed to survive that catastrophe. For nearly 1000 years.

They can probably do it again.

[circusboy90210]

oh why don't you do the whole world a favor & kill yourself, your ideas are subversive & undemocratic.keep your scientifcally unsound ideas off of my sovereignty.:p

[circusboy90210]

i live ona mountain deep in woods grew upnon a farm. notbmutch more in touch than that

[fuzzcheese111]

have fun with that uhhhhhhhh......... thats really all i can say

[chubbypekingnese]

if GOD selects the extinction of an animal by changing the planets tempurature or any other means ...who are you to say they should live?

[iluvmileycyrus0812]

to bad hes not doing it. its us. we are the ones killing them!!! we are creating global warming!! not GOd!!!

[cowboycarl04]

just remember the Inuit have criticized environmentalists from doing this... why? because their economy will take a big hit since Americans cannot hunt their usual limits and overpopulation would help kill them quicker if the ice caps do melt and leave for a certain time period (if it happens... who knows really)...

ironic... through protection, you kill them faster...

[aubiecatt]

expansiondg thera re just as many scientific studies to disprove man made global warming. You dip shit Al Gore sheep.

[expansiondg]

Anyone who still believes that global warming is a hoax really has their head buried in the sand. Not because it's on the news, but because it has been proven by many scientific studies over the last several years. Lots of people still have their head so far up Bush's ass, though, that they still think it's a lie.

[evilportrait]

@expansiondg Scientific studies only have come from CBS News. When they say "300 scientists" have PROVEN 'global warming' exists, they are entirely incorrect. Remember to use common sense. Analyze CBS's false content a little more. "Global warming" has never been proven. Even if it IS real, IT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE-MANY TIMES OVER!

You are a victim of brainwash via the corrupt news program of CBS News. Sorry.

[SirNaggerOfJones]

fuck those cracker bears

[arf1woof2bark3]

thats so sad

[petagirlgogreen08]

The polar bears being endangered is a really good reason to reduce on Greenhouse Gas emmisions! why would he say that it wasnt. we know congress isnt going to do anything as long as Bush is in office! He refused to sign a petition saying that we do need to reduce and go green. :p

[ProtoRail11]

you fuckin sick little bitch why would you say that about polar bears so you want them to just die what is wrong with u u sick faggot

[open2theroad]

where are your facts PROTORAIL11?? More people die because of hunger and fucking shark attacks when have you heard of a polar bear dropping dead because of drilling , u idiot do you know how big alaska is . ita almost half the USA you think drilling will impact land that BIG. move aside polar bear theres enough room for everyone

[circusboy90210]

they said that the transalaska pipeline would disrupt caribou, & it has actually enhanced their lives so go figure. Drilling technology has actually improved to such a point that the spills are no longer a mitigating factor. enviro wackos ned to stop living int he past

[lovestopsfear]

yer misinformed. caribou are extremely sensitive to noise and disruption and they don't like to change calving grounds.

[ultrakool]

What open 2 said, what a scam. CBS, Dirk and the polar bears need to have a Coke and a smile and shut the fuck up.

[open2theroad]

FUCKING Idiots the Polar Bear population has actually increased from 5,000 to 25,000 since the 70s FUCK The Polar Bear that Piece of shit never did anything to get me to and from work , START FUCKING DRILLING FOR OIL !!

[wangjohnson]

I've ridden a polar bear to work for years.

[DOWHAT08]

Recently the Russians used a robotic submarine to plant a flag on the sea floor in the Arctic Cicle region; claiming that the geologic contours link the area to their mainland. This area is thought to have vast deposits of oil and gas. What better way to subvert the Russians plans; while garnering world favor, then to adopt a "Trojan Bear" strategy.

[wangjohnson]

Actually, I'm the one that used a robotic submarine to plant a flag on the sea floor.

why is it always the white house and politicians with you fucking morons you wait for them to make decisions when you can make moves yourself fuckin stupid

Shut up with the panicmongering.  Brian.

[ScubaDubaDive]

"Polar Bears in the US and Canada has increased by 300%"

Current estimates put the global population at between 20,000 and 25,000. The reasons for the apparent discordance between past and present population totals is most likely the result reports based on stories from explorers and hunters rather than on scientific surveys.

[ScubaDubaDive]

The U.S. Geological Survey predicts two-thirds of the world's polar bears will disappear by 2050, based on moderate projections for the shrinking of summer sea ice caused by global warming.

[paradise357]

USGS uses the same profoundly flawed computer models relied on by the IPCC warmers; it fails absolutely to match historically observed data when projected back. Again, even if they're right, it's all happened before (see the Mediaeval Warm Period), and the bears did fine.

[evilportrait]

@paradise357 You, sir or madam, have common sense. Thank-you! There are still some out there!

[llWPGll]

you can thank the man for that tooo lazy and rely on shit that kills the natural things

[paradise357]

Are you in fact literate in any known language?

[ScubaDubaDive]

The Bush/Cheney Administration remains unwilling to address the primary threats to polar bears: global warming and habitat loss.

In fact, the Administration also issued a new rule that essentially eliminates any new protections that the threatened status should have provided to the polar bear.

[koolaiddew]

and thats why i thank god every night that we only got 6 months of those bastards left

[kyuubiftw]

seriously, who the hell re-elected them? noone i know likes them or voted for them...the first 4 years were enough to prove they are incompetent

[BPB9973952]

You are probably only in your teens or early twenties, and you wouldn't know anyone that had voted for Bush. The people that did vote for Bush are the same people who have upheld this countries traditions and beliefs long before you were even though of.

[ThatUJohnWayne]

Those same people got 4,000 American GI's killed,Diverted all resources from Afganistan to Iraq, Let Bin Laden escape, Had my mother layed off along with 3000 other employees and Let people swelter and die in the superdome. You act like people should be proud they voted for a man that divided this country and enraged all our allies all because he said "I am a god fearing Christian, If you don't want this place to turn into Sodom and Gomorrah vote for me and be good Christians".

[kyuubiftw]

tradition? yes...sending people to die for a country that doesnt even want our help

sounds like a tradition to me

[koolaiddew]

Im 16, but does that mean anything. Does that mean that I cant read, or hear things, or see things. Age has nothing to do with your knowledge of politics.

[Vierotchka]

I think that they have no intention whatsoever of leaving the White House - having worked so hard to acquire so much power, they won't relinquish it.
