The Bush administration today defended its decision to allow oil and gas exploration in the Chukchi Sea off Alaska despite concerns that such activities could threaten the future of the polar bears.
The testimony came at a House hearing by a special panel on energy independence and global warming. Democratic Reps. Jay Inslee of Washington and Edward Markey of Massachusetts were among the lawmakers who warned of the consequences for polar bears.

The polar bears will be fine - we will not - unless we drill for oil and build more nuclear power plants now - alternative fuel research can begin simultaneously (but bio fuels should not be considered). The world will also need to stop believing the Global Warming propaganda and start listening to people like Dr. Gray and John Coleman. Global warming is a scam!
“The models can’t even predict the weather in two weeks, much less 100 years” Dr. Bill Gray
