As an example of the hysteria caused by the gw doomists, I've had to inform at least two or three people that polar bears are not in danger of extinction after they expressed horror at their possible demise. I quoted Matt Taylor, one of the world's leading polar bear experts, who was quite upset with the polar-bears-are-becoming-extinct- crowd. In fact he affirmed polar bears have actually increased in numbers during the last century and can adapt quite well to warmer weather. My explanation was met with cold stares by the people I related this info to. No, they had heard about the bears becoming extinct on tv, so it must be true.
I'm going to buy a million dollars of carbon offsets to save the polar bears
