Gorillas, Hurricanes, and Moss Oh My
A recent discovery of 125,000 gorillas in the jungles of Africa have created a major uptick in the known population of these majestic creatures. A creature that was once on the verge of extinction due to the excesses of humanity is once more safe from joining the dodo. So, how did our scientific community that is so sure of their facts (can you say man made climate change) miss the existence of so many gorillas? Let's call it not bothering to get all the facts before jumping to conclusions. At least they preached saving the species and practiced conservation. When was the last time Al Gore took mass transit or practiced energy conservation? Can you say Nobel Prize for best fiction documentary? I'm sorry, that would be Oscar.
The next big flip flop (or should I say thong) is that the increase in global temperatures will cause less hurricanes not more. Huh? After the destruction of New Orleans, we were inundated with the certainty that man made global warming was going to increase the number of destructive hurricanes to the Americas. Since then, we have had few if any that caused more than driving rain and flooding. Well since the evidence points in the opposite direction, the global kooks are doing what any politician does when popular opinion changes; head in the direction that all of the other fish are swimming. Damn the facts. After all, it is what I feel that matters, not the facts.
So now I find out that their is evidence that Antarctica was once a flourishing land filled with both plant and animal life. The current absence of anything but penguins and glaciers leads me to believe that a major climate change occurred in Antarctica causing the extinction of all then existing life. Why is there no outcry for that lost eco-system? Entire populations are lost forever and yet the liberals do not morn. I guess if it cannot make a splash in the media, it is not worth reporting. Sorry woolly mammoth. You'll just have to wait until the next ice age before you get your 15 seconds.
