Climate Change (oh no not again)

Latest news is that the Polar Bear population is on the increase. One area has seen a small decline but everywhere else the population is increasing. In one village there are now so many it has increased the tourist trade substantially to the delight of the residents

The biggest threat is the ever increasing population and all the extra resources that they will use

At least they will not be short of food. :D

So true...Its just that few people, if any, care to be part of the polar bear diet...:rolleyes:

So, what to do? Transport all polar bears to the Antarctic...?!

Br. Colin,

Do I detect a streak of misanthropy in you?:confused:

That would ruin the old joke about WHY DON'T POLAR BEARS EAT PENQUINS? BECAUSE THEY CAN'T GET THE WRAPPERS OFF.

Not at all but we have to be realistic, in nature if a species becomes too profuse its food supply will take care of the situation also as a back up "nature" will lower the fertility rate, we just cannot sustain the present population growth and the resources that will be required to service em. Of course a plague or 3rd WW would do it. :cry::cry:

Br. Colin,

World History provides many examples of human civilizations being eradicated by diseases, wars, weather and many other causes. When societies begin to tinker with population control and the like then even more disastrous consequences follow. Now as the permafrost is loosening its grip on the Northern Territories of Canada and Russia, more arable land can be used to feed the world population.

I have no doubt that food with the aid if science will not be a problem however water is not a safe bet, but the problem will be energy to provide the present necessities of life such as the distribution of food, add into that hospitals, roads schools, every thing that we take for granted to day TV, processed food and drink the list is huge more vehicles and all the stuff needed to make these things, oh deary me.

Methinks that not all want the most-often reprobate lifestyle most westerners live. Bromination systems for water purification are relatively cheap compared to flash-evaporation systems. Transport by road will in 25 years be more "clean"...I'm not worried about overpopulation at all...Science will be a handmaiden to all the arable land that will come online within the next three generations...Relax Br. Colin, The Master of us all will graciously provide...

Perhaps CD, I will be long gone before it becomes a problem so to parrot a quip from teddy "not one gram of F#@& will be given today" I think what a person wants and what those in power are prepared to give are two different things :cheers:

Something will happen to curb the population growth. Diabetes is taking a terrible toll which will get worse if people do not curb their eating habits. This diesease is spreading with the growth in various countries of the fast food chains. Who knows what else will occur.

I too will be pushing up daisies before things will get interesting...What those in power want and what the rank and file wants are definitely two distinctive entities...and the twain shall never meet...Before the demise of the Soviet system, the Left used Marx in order to try effecting the powergrab over markets and people. Now the Left is using the Histrionics of climate-change to effect command over all sectors of society. And who is financing climategate with tax dollars, euros, pounds sterling, yen, yuan? Thats right, the politicos...Its much easier to get research money if one tinkers with the results of climate-pseudoscience. Yes, you read that right...Its not the neutral, objective, truthseeking scientist/researchers involved in climategate but the climatewhores and climatejunkies who are looking for a money and power fix from publicly elected pimps, gigolos and johns.

How did the pseudoscientists arrive at the figure of 95% certainty that the latest findings absolutely correctly predict what will happen in 2100?

You know when you weigh it all up, we are fed a load of old cobblers by the high and mighty and not just climate change.

(a few hours later) I saw a doco concerning the rise of type 2 diabetes in China a lot due to the availability of McDonald's one grossly overweight young boy of about 11-12 who regularly ate 5 Big Macs at one sitting "whew" but there were also skinny kids with this diabetes and they did not over eat but had the wrong type of fat in their body.

I am sure that the consumption of rice plays a part in this disease. For instance Asian in general and Jamacia have both seen an in crease in Type 2 and both have a high rice consumption. No other links that I am aware of.

Well, we all know that rice is a carbohydrate and...well, what do all the western doctors say about carbohydrates?...

I would not have thought that a country like Jamacia would have a diabetes problem. Plenty of fish, fruit and vegetables, not to mention goats milk and meat. But they also consider rice as part of their national dish (or dishes).

The only rice that I like is rice pudding nice and creamy out of a tin
