Call me Global Warming
I think it’s becoming obvious that any scientist that wants his or her study to get publicity merely has to somehow tie some dire results to global warming.
Headline: Warming May Be Hurting Gray Whales' Recovery
First Paragraph:
“As many as 118,000 gray whales roamed the Pacific before humans decimated the population through hunting, and human-induced climate change may now be depriving those that remain of the food they need, according to a study released yesterday.”
LAST!!!! Paragraph:
“It's not a conclusion we can come to. It's a hint," [Stephen R. Palumbi, a co-author of the study] said in an interview. But if humans are affecting the ocean's "capacity to support life, it's got to make you worry, it's got to make your wonder."
