War Against Polar Bears Almost Over



Our war against evil polar bears should be wrapped up by 2050, according to scientists. That is the projected year that there will be very, very, few polar bears on the Earth. Then we will have to deal with a massive seal explosion, but bats are being prepared as I write.


Two-thirds of the world’s polar bears will disappear by 2050, even under moderate projections for shrinking summer sea ice caused by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, government scientists reported on Friday.


I guess Coke will have to find a new mascot, which is upsetting.

The US Geological Survey created the report, which is part of a review to determine whether or not polar bears should be put on the Endangered Species List. Currently there are 22,000 polar bears running around the planet, murdering things. But as temps heat up, sea ice melts and polar bears die.


The scientists concluded that, while the bears were not likely to be driven to extinction, they would be largely relegated to the Arctic archipelago of Canada and spots off the northern Greenland coast, where summer sea ice tends to persist even in warm summers like this one, a shrinking that could be enough to reduce the bear population by two-thirds.


Yes! It will like we have created polar bear quarantines, which they deserve because they are similar to lepers. Except they kill with their giant paws and gnashing teeth, instead of an infectious disease. Thankfully, there will be no polar bears in Alaska, which means no polar bears in America.

Regardless of what action the world’s governments decide to take on greenhouse gases, the Arctic ice cap will continue to shrink for the next 50 years, so the bears are fucked. This summer the ice shrank faster than any year since satellite tracking began in 1979.


A spokeswoman for the White House declined to comment on the report, saying it was part of decision making at the Interior Department, parent of the survey.


The Fish and Wildlife Service will determine whether or not the polar bear will be placed on the Endangered Species list in January.

I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking this.



You two should really stop reading my articles. If I don't like something, I avoid it. Not hard, is it?

War Against FTR Just Getting Started!



Ohhh, you're late. People been sniping at FTR since his first post.

I love it when people think their same old shit is something special.

What's with the little anti-polar bear vibe going on in this thread? They live in the freezing cold so, as humans, what difference does that make to us? Do all you polar bear haters live in places where the polar bear population's so out of control that it's a problem for you?. They're not like brown bears who (I'm told) terrorise certain suburbs. It's sad that we continue to screw our planet because the human animal is superior to any other, no matter the cost to anything. frown Am I the only one here who's figured it this way?



It looks like weakness to me... our "superiority" isn't strong enough to let other life alone (plants, animals, humans).


Seriously. I wish we'd stop wasting grave space and just put dead bodies into a mulch pit that would be spread out over the dying rain forests.

It would be about the most useful any single human has ever been.

Too bad Bill Clinton and Al gore did nothing at all about Global Warming during their reign in the White House. Polar bears will be just fucking peachy in 2050. I'll bet anyone here a million bucks they'll be just fine in 2050.

Human caused Global Warming is bullshit.



Wrong again.

The seals are rejoicing that their cruel overlords will soon be relegated to leper colonies.

Don't worry, I shall rescue the bear from the rock. Then teach it to live with me. Sure, it might be a little dangerous, but just think of all the cuteness while it rips off my arms in my sleep.

I hope you realise that leprosy is actually not infectious, but is usually contracted through insanitary living conditions such as living/sleeping on dirt floors, and I do beleive there is treatment available, but none that will restore missing limbs...
