Polar bears drowning in an Alaskan sea because the ice packs are melting—it’s the iconic image of the global warming debate.
But the validity of the science behind the image—presented as an ignoble testament to our environment in peril by Al Gore in his film An Inconvenient Truth—is now part of a federal investigation that has the environmental community on edge.
Special agents from the Interior Department’s inspector general’s office are questioning the two government scientists about the paper they wrote on drowned polar bears, suggesting mistakes were made in the math and as to how the bears actually died, and the department is eyeing another study currently underway on bear populations.

Are you kidding me? Anyone living in the far north has seen the effects of a warming climate. Ancient glaciers are melting at an unprecedented rate. Permafrost is thawing. Why do you decry the “Feds” on everything else yet hold them up as an authority to “prove” your misguided opinions? The world’s oceans are warming, that’s a fact. There is debate over what is causing it, however, why contribute to an already existing problem? Who wants to live in a garbage dump? That isn’t “freedom”, it’s irresponsibility. As is this article.
Kate: the point is’nt whether global warming exists, but why. The AGW enthusiasts are not interested in a real debate on causation. The “science is settled” period so they say and to question their conclusions leads to personal verbal assaults, ridicule, claims of funding by big oil and coal interests, attacks on scientific credentials etc. This is not science, it’s exclusionary tactics. Why ? Probably because as “climategate” showed, the science IS”NT settled.Why such a unanimity amongst AGW believers in the one an only solution being a one world, secular humanist, socialist gov’t who’s main solution is a wealth redistribution scheme that has nothing to do with actual carbon emission reduction, which emissions they claim is the culprit ?? Think independently Kate. Anytime a complex issue is supposedly going to be solved by a simple solution you should question both the supposed cause and the solution. Why the fear of open debate ?? Finally Kate remember that “the science is never settled”………..
Our government openly pushes the “Green” agenda as if the ordinary citizen is to blame for “global warming”. Meanwhile, the government is pushing us to use TOXIC mercury-containing light bulbs, spraying TOXIC barium and aluminum in our skies as chemtrails, and using their H.A.A.R.P. technology as weather weapons and bulging the OZONE layer like a blister. All of these things are contributing far more to global warming and global ILLNESS than any recycling frenzy can repair!!! Wake up. Global Warming is just another means to CONTROL the masses. Distrast the “useless eaters” and use the “useful idiots” in society to carry out the plans to starve, bankrupt, sicken and “regulate” us out of our freedoms. Do a search on “H.A.A.R.P. and chemtrails”. Then get yourself on the right side of the fight and HELP US!
Hey Laurie, Think ‘Slingblade’. I like the way you talk.
