The scientific abomination that is the “Circumpolar Monitoring Framework for Polar Bears” | polarbearscience

The scientific abomination that is the “Circumpolar Monitoring Framework for Polar Bears” | polarbearscience: "In short, Arctic government representatives at the Moscow forum agreed that all future polar bear research should be constrained by the premise that increases in global temperatures over the next century will occur exactly as predicted by climate models and will negatively affect polar bears precisely as predicted by models devised by polar bear biologists. Under the plan, subpopulations that are already showing predicted effects of global warming will get the bulk of research funds, while regions that are paradoxically not responding as predicted will get much less money for research and survey efforts. "
