This is calculated ‘climate change’ propaganda marketed as entertainment.

New polar bear hunting habitat forming already along the coast of the Laptev Sea: A new trend?
It’s looking to me like the decade-long increasing trend of September ice extent since 2012 (see below) may indicate a change more biologically relevant to ice-dependent Arctic animals than the zero…
Polar Bear No Closer to Extinction Than It Was 18 Years Ago as Arctic Sea Ice Resists ‘Tipping Point’
All predictions of disaster aside, in fact the polar bear is no closer to extinction than it was in 2005 as Arctic sea ice again steadfastly resists slipping past a catastrophic ‘tipping point’ — or the ‘death…
Last WH polar bears ashore even later than 2009 as Hudson Bay finally becomes ice-free
Don’t forget: this is the subpopulation that polar bear specialists use to model the future of all bears, everywhere in the Arctic but only use stale data from the 2000s because including more recent…
Susan Crockford Interviewed on Tom Nelson’s Podcast
Since 2012, she has challenged claims that polar bears and other Arctic species face devastation due to loss of summer sea ice, which over the years has generated a surprisingly…
Hudson Bay Sea Ice Update: Many Polar Bears are Still on Low Concentration Ice Offshore
This is shaping up to be a great year for Hudson Bay bears!
New Paper Polar Bears Attracted to Garbage Dumps Blames Lack of Sea Ice Without Any Evidence
All you need to know about the motivation behind the paper comes from the authors’ acknowledgement:
Arctic Sea Ice Still Quite Abundant for Early Summer
Forget about whether the numbers are below or above some short-term average, there is no catastrophe in the making for marine mammals in the Arctic at this time.
Claim: Data Exists Showing Polar Bear Body Condition Improves Over Summer On Sea Ice
I would seriously like to know which paper or papers this data appears in but of course, he doesn’t provide that information. Instead, it’s ‘trust me, I’m the expert’.
Southern Beaufort Sea Polar Bear Habitat at the Summer Solstice is Above Average
Sea ice is well above recent levels for this time of year in the Southern Beaufort and only time will tell if that’s bad news for polar bears.
Newly-discovered SE Greenland Polar Bear Subpopulation: Another Assumption Proven False
I’m thrilled to see evidence that glacier-front habitat can support a small polar bear population even without summer sea ice.
Dr. Susan Crockford, For the Win, Booyah!
There is actual evidence that two of my fully-referenced blog posts caused some Antarctic Treaty delegates to reject a bid for special protected status for Emperor penguins. Activist heads have exploded.
Polar Bear Habitat in Canada Over the Last Decade: Spring Sea Ice Not in a Death Spiral
Sea ice extent in Canada at the height of Arctic spring over the last 10 years has been more like a gentle roller coaster than a death spiral.
Polynyas are Critical for Polar Bear Spring Feeding
Sea ice is still abundant in spring (April-June), which is the critical feeding period for polar bears: they must consume about 2/3 of the total calories they need for the…
Ancient Polar Bear Remains Explained By Sea Ice and Polynyas: My Peer-Reviewed Paper
From Polar Bear Science Dr. Susan Crockford My open-access, peer-reviewed paper on the ecology of ancient polar bears in relation to sea ice has just been published in Open Quaternary. It’s…
Explaining Abundant Polar Bear Sightings on The East Coast as An Upshot of Sea Ice Loss Is Absurd
Last week, a senior producer at CBC News, in order to concoct a timely story for ‘Earth Day’, attempted to explain the high number of sightings of polar bears this…
Dispelling The Doomsday Propaganda In DisneyNature’s New Polar Bear ‘Documentary’
In short, there is still no climate emergency for polar bears: the hype is based on old models that failed spectacularly and new ones which depend on old data and totally improbable climate scenarios…
Sea ice average for March is the metric used to compare to previous winters
Overall, nothing spectacular in terms of change compared to last few years: still lots of ice for polar bears to hunt upon for newborn seals, which they will be doing…
Arctic sea ice maximum extent was present for at least two weeks at about 14.9 million km2
Just a little something they all left out of their announcements, for some reason.
National Geographic’s Misinformation about Forests and Climate Change
The real issue is why would anyone trust National Geographic and their obsession with pushing climate change misinformation?
