Lomborg: From Polar Bears To Coral Reefs, Climate Disinfo Refuses To Die
by Bjorn Lomborg  3 hours ago 
 

Whatever happened to polar bears? They used to be all that climate campaigners could talk about, but now they’re essentially absent from headlines. [emphasis, some links added]

Over the past 20 years, climate activists have elevated various stories of climate catastrophe, then quietly dropped them without apology when the opposing evidence becomes overwhelming. The only constant is the scare tactics.


Protesters used to dress up as polar bears. Al Gore’s 2006 film, “An Inconvenient Truth,” depicted a sad cartoon polar bear floating away to its death.

The Washington Post warned in 2004 that the species could face extinction, and the World Wildlife Fund’s chief scientist claimed some polar bear populations would be unable to reproduce by 2012.
