Go to Google
and search for
the term
"polar bear".
One of Google’s
top ‘suggestions’
is a list of questions
that people often ask:
( aka "People also ask" )
One question
Google offers is:
" Why are
polar bears
going extinct ? "
The Google
‘answer’
provided
is a
statement
from WWF.
WWF ( World Wide
Fund for Nature )
is a
multi-national
organization,
financially
invested in
promoting
the false claim
that polar bears
are suffering,
due to declining
sea ice.
Paid Google
advertising says:
( designed
to look like
real answers
and facts ):
‘Because of ongoing
and potential loss
of their sea ice habitat ,
resulting from
climate change,
polar bears were listed
as a threatened species
in the US under the
Endangered Species
Act in May 2008.
The survival and
the protection of the
polar bear habitat
are urgent issues
for WWF."
The statement says
‘sea ice’ when it
really means
‘summer sea ice’,
which was used
for predictions
of polar bear
population
declines.
"Why are
polar bears
going extinct?"
is a fake question
-- actually leftist
propaganda.
The total number
of polar bears
is really growing !
And Arctic sea ice
extent has been
steady since 2006 !
Another question
Google offers is:
"How many
polar bears
are left ? "
Google Answer:
"In fact, the World Wide
Fund for Nature (or WWF)
estimates that there are
only 22,000 to 31,000
polar bears left
in the world.
Jan 25, 2019’".
"Only" is a leftist
propaganda word.
This global estimate,
provided by the IUCN
Red List (not WWF)
means there are
almost three times
more polar bears
than the 10,000
there were in 1960
( Regehr et al. 2016;
Wiig et al. 2015 ).
And 22,000 to 31,000
polar bears is a VERY
conservative estimate,
VERY likely to be low.
