Ditto. Plus, 97% of the scientists is meaningless, since any idiot can claim to be one. Scientists don't produce science -- data analysts produce theories from data observations -- and so far there are NO data observations proving man-made CO2 harms our climate - NONE.

I assume that it should be "Scientists are", but regardless ......that is a strange statement to make - "scientists are meaningless" and then topped by the "Scientists don't produce science" statement. If Scientists don't produce science what do they produce? .......grade A eggs? Without scientists we would have ZERO satellites orbiting the Earth. There would be no vaccines. No color TV's. No streaming services. No I-phones. No space program of any kind. No microwave ovens. No transistors and integrated circuits.
.........Anyway, once again......95% of Climate Scientists believe that CO2 and methane CAUSE Global warming. Maybe there is a club called "Know-Nothings' somewhere that would believe otherwise.

Absolute nonsense statistic that has been debunked, many times...

They didn't even do that. That number comes from the percentage of scientists who MENTIONED "man made climate change' in their papers. not that they agreed/disagreed with it...

I am aware that in the profession of Medicine that Doctors do NOT self-diagnose their own illnesses - but rather go to another Doctor (expert) for their advice.
.........Because the majority of Climate Scientists say that we are having DANGEROUS Global Warming that has INCREASED dramatically in the last 5 years, I have to believe them. I see no contrary evidence. I know for a fact that Coral Reefs are dying. I know that the ice at the North pole is almost all melting. We all have seen pictures of polar bears floating on SMALL, tiny islands of Ice. They are listed as threatened and depleted. Emperor Penguins are in danger of EXTINCTION.
...........So, basically MAN on Earth is willing to KILL OFF Polar bears and Penguins because the population of people has grown out of control and there has been very little attempts to stop coal burning and the pollution from gasoline internal combustion engines. It would be only a slight inconvenience for people in the US and Europe to switch to driving electric vehicles (they even accelerate faster), but it seems that they would rather KILL OFF Coral Reefs, Polar Bears, Penguins, and many other species.
........What is so GREAT about having 8.2 Billion people on Earth, with 10 Billion by 2060. Parts of the Earth will get so HOT as to be uninhabitable. Northward migration will occur in the northern hemisphere and many, many WARS will start.
The "polar bear picture" has been debunked. It was all about the angle at which the picture was taken...

That "Island of ice" was only a few dozen yards away from land...

Regardless of ONE picture about a Polar bear, the important thing is that Polar Bears are an endangered species. And the north and south poles have been affected MUCH MORE than at US latitudes by Global Warming. Scientists say as much as 4 times as bad. Alaskan fishermen are going broke because the water temperature is so high that fish have stopped migrating that far North. And I listed other endangered animals. Likely, a person could find 10 or more endangered species. I am just giving examples of Climate Change.

Hunting was the biggest threat to polar bears. Since the ban on hunting was put in place, 50 years ago, their #s have doubled...

50 years after hunting ban polar bears are thriving, new report shows - The Global Warming Policy Foundation

But keep banging that "climate change" drum as the cause of everything...

There are now too many Polar Bears (thanks to global warming) and now the international community allows ~700 "harvests" each year to keep them under control. It only costs $50,000 per tag. This is no different than the ~700 Black Bear "harvests" in New Jersey each year.

Polar bears are considered a THREATENED animal.

They are only considered threatened to the indoctrinated. If polar bears were really threatened then they would not "harvest" about 800 a year to keep them under control. All you have to do is Google polar bear hunts, and then sign up, and then you too can help support a local Inuit (Eskimo) family -- they need to eat too -- because there's no Publix that far north.

But he just told us "there are too many polar bears"! They're everywhere, frightening the kids at Sumter Landing, attacking line dancers at Brownwood! Oh, the humanity! (he cried in despair). Too many polar bears. Note: the preceeding was sarcasm.

Polar bears are a species like many others, threated by loss of habitat, food sources, as a result of human expansion, industry and global warming, a condition whose current increase is exacerbated/accelerated by human activities world wide. Root of the problem is over population. ( To be continued. You're welcome.)

They are only they are not considered threatened by the inoculated and/or inebriated.

Loss of Polar Bear habitat is fake news because the bear population keeps growing. Source: polarbearscience.com
