These eco nutter would crucify a polar bear if it served their purpose of destroying the market economy. Delingpole was entirely correct in watermelons about these folk, he may have lost the plot in some ways but that book stands the test of time.
Apparently polar bears are very good to eat. The crucifixion idea of the eco nutters may be to enhance the animal’s palatibility…….
‘According to one guest, the bear meat there is boiled for six hours and fried another two, to kill parasites.’
‘Modern Inuit and Inupiat value the flavor nuances of different bears or parts of a bear. Some prefer den polar bears, instead of bears caught in the open, because they taste better.
The Cree consider the front and back paws (tukiq) the best eating.
For many Inupiat, polar bear meat remains a favorite meal and a prestigious gift.’
‘The Norwegian restaurateur André Grytbakk, manager of the upscale Huset in Longyearbyen, Svalbard, occasionally dishes out polar bear steaks with potatoes or a slice of roast in red wine sauce.
He also offers a bear meat snack with lingonberry pickle. As it’s “a rough kind of meat,” the chef recommends a heavy wine with it, such as full-bodied Bordeaux, from the Huset’s 1,200-bottle cave.’

Would I serve Polar Bears with potatoes or chips?
Roast potatoes.
Bear fat apparently has excellent roasting properties.
If I may, a 2019 Ch. Angludet?
Probably also worth getting in a few bottles of Nyetimber for opening in due course:

I like a bit of Branston with my bear and Marrow fat peas, but my life doesn’t like those so I am happy with garden peas.
I have tried brown bear in a Bucharest restaurant; not great. No Branston or marrow far peas (or Ch. Angludet 2019) were available so that may have been why.
My excuse is that it seemed by far and away the best choice from a menu whose English translation included such delights as ‘Peasant’s Cock Soup’ and ‘Fried Crap’.
The 2019 is still a bit young? There was little 2018 and no 2017 so maybe go back 10-15 years?
Or, out of left field, a flanders red beer, or maybe a kriek?
I would watch that “fried crap” if I were you
Sound advice. There is seems to be a great deal of it about, particularly in Whitehall/Westminster……
Too fatty for me in the summer months. Anyway I’ve been reliably informed that there’s only one skinny one left on an ice flow somewhere.
I want to eat a polar bear now.
Actually the Polar bear is going to eat you and wash you all down with a refreshing coke
OK so on this website we are questioning things. After all in science, if that is what is meant to be about scepticism is the highest calling and blind faith the one unpardonable sin. —–Dear BBC, SKY NEWS Guardian Independent etc etc etc. ——Blind faith has no place in science. The fact that you never question any aspect of “climate crisis” claims or the energy solutions that are allegedly going to fix it means you are not indulging in science, you are indulging in advocacy. ——-But the activist media don’t question any of it because they know what they are going to find. —-A smidgeon of the truth elevated into a planetary emergency with no evidence and all for political purposes.
So…..minor increases in temperature appear to be beneficial to the Great Barrier Reef.
I wonder if there are other, global, benefits to those minor increases in temparature?
Oh!
‘We have also seen that assuming a warmer world is more dangerous than a cooler world is highly questionable, after all the baseline temperature used is from the end of the Little Ice Age, the coldest and most miserable period in the past 12,000 years.’
You mean?
‘….all the benefits of warming and additional CO2 have not been considered in any of the AR6 reports, so how can they equate greenhouse gas emissions with dangerous warming? They can’t. Thus, without establishing a need to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions, the IPCC produced a 2,000-page report on how to do it.’
Oops!
‘In every volume we see that the selection of papers cited, model input, and models chosen was guided not by a desire to uncover the truth, but by how best to reach their pre-determined conclusions. The three volumes, total 7,519 pages and most of content is made useless by obvious reporting and confirmation bias. In summary, we see that the hundreds, maybe thousands of authors were given the answer, and told to find the data and analysis to support it.
What a useless waste of time and money.‘

The wheels really are coming off……….
Over the decades there have been so many hyped up scare stories about the GBR I’ve lost count: first it was global cooling, now global warming/boiling; sea level rises/falls, pollution & plastic islands, tourism, etc etc. None of them seem to have cottoned on to the fact that the GBR seems to be highly resilient and self-regenerative over periods of more than a couple of random weeks in June. But that wouldn’t fit The Narrative™, would it?
It’s only been around for millions of years in warm times and cool times, so what would it “know” about survival?
What hope is there that this Net Zero and climate fraud tyranny can be halted when on a sceptical website like this there are only 14 comments on article like this? ———The UK Population are giving these phony planet savers such an easy ride, and as result we are going to deserve all the impoverishment coming our way
No, they are going to deserve all the impoverishment coming our way. We know what to expect, they don’t…I hope I’m not around to see their pathetic faces when the penny drops.
This is really good news. I wouldn’t want to GBR to disappear for any reason, and the fact it has recovered so strongly when the doomsters were predicting otherwise is excellent.
The old bloke who was running the Darwin aquarium back in 2018 told me the reason their coral reef was healthy whereas there were problems with the GBR was due to a lack of agricultural runoff.
I saw an eco-twerp being interviewed about 12 months ago on the (good?) news of the resurgence of the GBR. Surely he was happy? Oh no, it was the ‘wrong type’ of coral….
I like the cut of his jib, an honest outspoken scientist who still believes in Science.
The downticker strikes again in the comments. Pathetic!
