Some informative reading for Facebook’s so-called climate fact checkers — or just something else for them to ‘cancel’?
Is Facebook now an expert on polar bear conservation status? Apparently they have decreed themselves the last word for online content. There is a plan afoot to label anything that says polar bears are not being harmed by recent sea ice declines as ‘disinformation’ – but on whose authority? Thanks to Joshfor the cartoon below.
A new section of the Climate Science Information Center, launching alongside the labelling trial, debunks common myths such as the false claim that polar bear populations are not suffering due to global heating, or the widespread belief that excess carbon emissions help plant life. Facebook is working with climate communication experts from around the world, including at the University of Cambridge, to produce the content.
Ah, they’re consulting ‘climate communication experts‘! Those experts surely must be up on all the latest papers and not trusting the word of obviously biased conservations organizations…

‘climate communication experts‘
Whose job is to prohibit climate communication.
“The proselytizing fanatic strengthens his own faith by converting others. The creed whose legitimacy is most easily challenged is likely to develop the strongest proselytizing impulse. It is doubtful whether a movement which does not profess some preposterous and patently irrational dogma can be possessed of that zealous drive which ‘must either win men or destroy the world.’ It is also plausible that those movements with the greatest inner contradiction between profession and practice—that is to say with a strong feeling of guilt—are likely to be the most fervent in imposing their faith on others.” P110 The True Believer
“…when a faith loses its potency, rudeness often serves as a substitute.”
“…a virulent outburst of fanaticism may precede the death of a faith.”
–On the Waterfront
“Extreme orthodoxy betrays by its very frenzy that the poison of skepticism has entered the soul of the church; for men insist most vehemently upon their certainties when their hold upon them has been shaken. Frantic orthodoxy is a method for obscuring doubt.”–Reinhold Niebuhr
KEEP SHAKING THE “TREE”
Can this be posted on farcebook? Or will the fake censors say its fake?
My solution was to quit using Facebook when they labeled my link to a peer reviewed study of sea level as false. I didn’t delete my account just deleted the app.
why is anyone still on Farcebook??? I cancelled my account a couple months ago. Never did much there anyway, it was just a way to chat with a few friends. All done with that now.
As for this polar bear scam, it is just as rubbish as the covid19/masks/lockdowns rubbish. All of it meant to separate us from our money and our personal freedoms.
to paraphrase one wag: In the 1950’s there were 5,000 polar bears. Now there are only 27,000 left.
Er, no “It’s frosty man”
[…] Fact: polar bears are thriving despite sea ice loss according to the scientific literature […]
