It's raining bears, hallelujah
Thanks to Lentz for pointing out this Polar Bear video. It's from "Planestupid.com" who appear to be a bunch of typical global warming scare-mongers trying to tell us that plane travel is bad (even as they jet off to Copenhagen to try to generate more money-making hysteria) ... but they've produced a priceless gem that really just goes to show that the people who made the video are indeed just plain stupid.
As one person commented over at Youtube,
So if the planet warms itself more it will rain polar bears? Sweet! I want me a rug and a polar bear jacket!Yep, apparently polar bears will fall from the sky and crush your car if you fly in a plane. Personally I blame the the PBSG (Polar Bear Specialist Group). I kid you not ... there really is such a group, and they meet on a regular basis despite all of the plane travel involved.
The 15th meeting of the IUCN Polar Bear Specialist Group (PBSG), hosted by the Greenland Institute of Natural Resources, was held at the Greenland Representation in Copenhagen Denmark , June 29-July 3, 2009. The Polar Bear Specialist Group is composed of researchers and managers representing each of the five circumpolar nations that signed the International Agreement for the Conservation of Polar Bears of 1973. Since the late 1960s, the members of PBSG have met every 3 to 5 yearsAt their last meeting there were 21 specialists present. If that's an average, and they've met 15 times, they've managed to kill 315 polar bears so far. Or something. Actually, if they could arrange to meet in some starving area of Africa, they could solve world hunger. I imagine all of that bear meat would save a good many villagers in times of drought.
[Update] Here are a bunch more funny bear youtube clips. Enjoy.
