BEAR-MAGEDDON: 7 Outlets Scaremonger Polar Bears ‘Rewriting’ DNA to Fight Climate Change – Morano: ‘When current reality fails to alarm…they make scarier & scarier (unfounded) predictions of the future’
Excerpt: Climate Depot founder Marc Morano blasted the media outlets perpetuating this nonsense in comments to MRC Business. “Scientists and scientific data have known for decades that ‘climate change’ was not threatening polar bears in the Arctic. The number of polar bears in the Arctic has increased dramatically in recent decades, particularly since a hunting ban was imposed.” Specifically, said Morano, “The polar bear population exploded from an estimated 5,000 in the 1960s to 30,000 or more today.” …
But this is a load of bunk, as Morano joked to MRC. “It is safe to say that polar bears are disappearing, but only from Al Gore’s books and movies!” He joked that “In Gore’s 2006 film, he made the polar bear a poster child for global warming, but fast forward to his 2017 film and book sequel, and Gore did not even mention them.” Scientists have testified before Congress that “polar bears have survived several historic episodes of much warmer temperatures over the last 10,000 years, and they have adapted,” Morano noted. In essence, polar bear adaptation to a changing climate isn’t even a new thing.
Morano argued that what the new study does, if anything, is reveal “some insight into one of the many ways these bears have adapted.” …
But the seemingly nuttier bits of climate change tomfoolery continuously oozing out of the media eco-sphere shouldn’t be expected to fade away, Morano said. “When current reality fails to alarm, the climate activists will continue to make scarier and scarier (unfounded) predictions of the future.”

Climate Policy Is Based on a Meaningless Number, according to a new study
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/climate-policy-based-meaningless-number-163900719.html Dec. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Trillions of dollars are being spent for the ostensible purpose of keeping the earth’s global mean surface temperature (GMST) from rising more than 1.5 or 2.0 degrees Celsius above the “pre-industrial” baseline, but this is a meaningless number, writes Jonathan Cohler in the winter issue of the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons.

Changes to polar bear DNA could help them adapt to global warming, study finds
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/dec/12/changes-to-polar-bear-dna-could-help-them-adapt-to-global-heating-study-finds By Helena Horton Changes in polar bear DNA that could help the animals adapt to warmer climates have been detected by researchers, in a study thought to be the first time a statistically significant link has been found between rising temperatures and changing DNA in a wild mammal species. Climate breakdown is threatening the […]
Climate change study that overestimated economic impact is pulled — but not before banks relied on it
https://nypost.com/2025/12/03/business/study-overestimating-economic-impact-of-climate-change-retracted-though-central-banks-already-used-it/ By Taylor Herzlich The scientific journal Nature retracted an influential paper that overestimated the economic toll of climate change – but not until after central banks around the world had used it to create risk management scenarios. The three scientists who worked on the study on Wednesday cited “substantial” issues with the paper, which […]
New Study: Temperature-Driven CO2 Outgassing Explains 83% Of CO2 Rise Since 1959
New Study: Temperature-Driven CO2 Outgassing Explains 83 Percent Of CO2 Rise Since 1959 By Kenneth Richard on 5. December 2025 “[T]he fraction of [fossil] fuel-related emissions still remaining in the air (about 23 ppm out of 425 ppm at the end of 2024) cannot have any climatic effect.” – Veyres et al., 2025 A few years ago Dr. Koutsoyiannis and […]
Watch: Morano on Fox: ‘This is scientists behaving badly’ – Talks major retraction of alarmist climate study & Zillow cancelling ‘climate risk data’ for homes
Fox Business – The Bottom Line – Broadcast December 4, 2025 Video: Rough Transcript: Morano: “This is a huge adjustment. The authors of the paper said they couldn’t actually make any corrections that they could justify. They had to do a full retraction. They were offered the opportunity to just do a correction and try […]
Turns Out Climate Change Isn’t Causing ‘Mass Extinctions’ – Study finds extinction rates have slowed to currently at their ‘lowest in the past 500 years’
Climate Change Weekly # 564—Turns Out Climate Change Isn’t Causing ‘Mass Extinctions’ By The Heartland Institute One of the persistent claims made across the twentieth century is that humans are causing mass extinction of species, both in rate and numbers, unseen since the end of the age of dinosaurs. I discussed this claim at length […]
Bjorn Lomborg debunks wildfire study: Climate disaster science gets huge coverage. When it’s found to be wrong… crickets
https://archive.ph/Yjmvf#selection-2953.4-2953.88 By Bjorn Lomborg Excerpt: In the world of climate politics, highly pessimistic scenarios can drive headlines and coverage, and so in turn have an impact on policy. Two recent unfortunate episodes show that the rush to shout “fire” means that some scenarios are gaining massive influence when they should instead be attracting sceptical reviews […]
A Huge Retraction: Journal Nature has finally retracted ‘fatally flawed’ study used to ‘justify projections of catastrophic future climate impacts’ – Authors admit errors are ‘too substantial’ for just a correction
https://rogerpielkejr.substack.com/p/a-huge-retraction-the-usual-playbook By ROGER PIELKE JR. Excerpt: Some huge news dropped today that will reverberate through climate science and policy. Nature has finally retracted “The Economic Commitment of Climate Change,” by Kotz et al. (KLW24), more than 18 months after first learning that the paper was fatally flawed, with the authors acknowledging that its errors are “too substantial” for a correction. […]
An Ice Age May Come, New York Post, But If It Does, Ocean Current Collapse Won’t Be the Cause
An Ice Age May Come, New York Post, But If It Does, Ocean Current Collapse Won’t Be the Cause By H. Sterling Burnett The New York Post (NYP) covered a recent study that claims the “Gulf Stream” could soon collapse due to human caused climate change. Scientifically, the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) has slowed and sped […]
