Leading biologist accuses polar bear scientists of systematically misleading the public.

                   A new paper from the Global Warming Policy Foundation accuses scientists of systematically misleading the public, saying they are blaming changes in polar bear populations on global warming despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary.  In the paper "the Arctic Fallacy" Dr Susan Crockford an expert in Arctic mammals notes that reductions in polar bear populations are clearly linked to thick spring ice, which reduces the availability of the bears` prey.  Dr Crockford says that polar bear scientists are being wilfully blind to the facts. Alarmist scientists blame reductions in  summer ice despite there being no evidence of this.  In fact Arctic ice is increasing faster than ever
.
             Dr Crockford is an evolutionary biologist and has been working for 35 years in archaeozoology, paleozoology and forensic zoology.  She is a professor at the University of Victoria in Canada. http://www.thegwpf.org/content/uploads/2015/06/Arctic-Fallacy.pdf
