Unless you've been hibernating for the winter, you have no doubt heard
the many alarms about global warming. Now even the Bush Administration
is getting into the act, at least judging from last week's decision by
Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne to recommend that the majestic polar
bear be listed as "threatened" under the Endangered Species Act. The
closer you inspect this decision, however, the more it looks like the
triumph of politics over science.

"We are concerned," said Mr. Kempthorne, that "the polar bears' habitat
may literally be melting" due to warmer Arctic temperatures. However,
when we called Interior spokesman Hugh Vickery for some elaboration, he
was a lot less categorical, even a tad defensive. The "endangered"
designation is based less on the actual number of bears in Alaska than
on "projections into the future," Mr. Vickery said, adding that these
"projection models" are "tricky business."


Apparently so, because there are in fact more polar bears in the world
now than there were 40 years ago, as the nearby chart shows. The main
threat to polar bears in recent decades has been from hunting, with
estimates as low as 5,000 to 10,000 bears in the 1950s and 1960s. But
thanks to conservation efforts, and some cross-border cooperation among
the U.S., Canada and Russia, the best estimate today is that the polar
bear population is 20,000 to 25,000.

It also turns out that most of the alarm over the polar bear's future
stems from a single, peer-reviewed study, which found that the bear
population had declined by some 250, or 25%, in Western Hudson Bay in
the last decade. But the polar bear's range is far more extensive than
Hudson Bay. A 2002 U.S. Geological Survey of wildlife in the Arctic
Refuge Coastal Plain concluded that the ice bear populations "may now
be near historic highs." One of the leading experts on the polar bear,
Mitchell Taylor, the manager of wildlife resources for the Nunavut
territory in Canada, has found that the Canadian polar bear population
has actually increased by 25% -- to 15,000 from 12,000 over the past
decade.

* * *
Mr. Taylor tells us that in many parts of Canada, "polar bears are very
abundant and productive. In some areas, they are overly abundant. I
understand that people not living in the North generally have
difficulty grasping the concept of too many polar bears, but those who
live here have a pretty good grasp of what that is like." Those cuddly
white bears are the Earth's largest land carnivores.

There is no doubt that higher temperatures threaten polar bear habitat
by melting sea ice. Mr. Kempthorne also says he had little choice
because the threshold for triggering a study under the Endangered
Species Act is low. The Bush Administration was sued by the usual
environmental suspects to make this decision, which means that Interior
will now conduct a year-long review before any formal listing decision
is made.

Nonetheless, the bears seem to have survived despite many other severe
warming and cooling periods over the last few thousands of years. Polar
bears are also protected from poaching and environmental damage by the
Marine Mammal Protection Act, so there is little extra advantage to the
bears themselves from an "endangered" classification.

All of which suggests that the real story here is a human one, namely
about the politics of global warming. Once a plant or animal is listed
under the Endangered Species Act, the government must also come up with
an elaborate plan to protect its habitat. If the polar bear is
endangered by warmer temperatures, then the environmentalist demand
will be that the government do something to address that climate
change. Faster than you can say Al Gore, this would lead to lawsuits
and cries in Congress demanding federal mandates to reduce greenhouse
gas emissions.

Think we're exaggerating? No sooner had Mr. Kempthorne announced his
study than Kassie Siegel of something called the Center for Biological
Diversity told the New York Times that "even this Administration" would
not be able to "write this proposal without acknowledging that the
primary threat to polar bears is global warming and without
acknowledging the science of global warming." Her outfit was one of
those who had sued the feds in the first place over the polar bears,
notwithstanding its location in the frozen tundra of Arizona. But no
matter. For want of a few hundred polar bears, the entire U.S. economy
could be vulnerable to judicial dictation.

* * *
With that much at stake, Mr. Kempthorne could have shown a stiffer
backbone in resisting this political pressure. At the very least he now
has an obligation to ensure that Interior's year-long study be based on
real science and the actual polar bear population, rather than rely on
computer projections. Any government decision to limit greenhouse gases
deserves to be debated in the open, where the public can understand the
consequences, not legislated by the back door via the Endangered
Species Act.

Obviously Paris Hilton likes it that way in the back seat. When an

trying to draw attention away from the fact that her career has run its
course, if she ever had one.

We can only assume, therefore, that you spend a lot of time flashing
your bald pussy, Stephen Bach.

How _did_ the gender reassignment surgery go, BTW?

Are you looking for some hot tips, Stephen Bach? Sorry. I don't look
at pornography of any kind. Perhaps you could ask one of your butt
buddies? Or are they all in the USA, which you cannot visit due to your
criminal past?

It is rather interesting following her 'career' though isn't it? I mean
the chief exploit of Paris Hilton all of us, except perhaps for Donna, have
witnessed is her avid cock sucking on a video taken by herself and no doubt
published by her on the internet . This normally would have frozen her out
of 'celebrity' society but she's a billionheiress and the rules don't apply
to her. What a comment on this strange world we now live in.

I have not actually seen that particular bit of the video in question.
The section that I saw was the one where she essentially halts all
sexual activity in order to use her mobile telephone.

Left me thinking that not only is the girl bug ugly but she's also a dud
root.

Do some reading on the so-called "raunch culture" and most of it is
explained quite nicely. We live in unfortunately gauche times, John.

Paris Hilton is too old for you QZ Pedophile.

There are more polar bears now than there were a few decades ago. At one
time there were
estimated to be no more than 5000 bears remaining. In the hostile arctic
environment, that
may have been near extinction level. When hunting was stopped, the numbers
started
to bounce back.

A more sobering fact is that this year some 300 million square kilometers of
arctic ice
melted and did not reform. Similar troubling problems at the south pole.

I am one who believes in global warming, based upon the most recent studies.
The most
sobering of these (and one which is most likely to be off the mark a bit) is
that we have
no more than about 10 years to reverse our contribution to the situation,
which of course
we will not even consider.

Of more concern to me is the growth in the world population. Our race is
reproducing faster
that alley cats. I am afraid that in the USA, Homo sapiens is suffering
loss of habitat to
Homo Trailertrashei...

Christ almighty....could you imagine that snatch at full stretch...it
would be like looking into the Mersey Tunnel. A man would have to
strap a board to his arse to stop falling in. As well as tattooing his
name on the soles of his feet.
Shudder, a fate worse than death?

Well, post a picture like the one from B. Spears and Andrew and
I will do a comparison.

Well I might have been Greg, but in this instance I was referring to
one B. Spears. Do you have any anecdotes or even better, any JPG's of
Jacqueline?

I do have a picture of Gregory Morrow....he looks like Adolf Hitler!
And acts like him too!
