What Gorillas Tell Us About Global Warming

Apparently there were a spare 150,000 gorillas hanging out the Congo.

An estimated 125,000 Western lowland gorillas are living in a swamp in equatorial Africa, researchers reported Tuesday, double the number of the endangered primates thought to survive worldwide.

Scientist can’t get a decent count on a large land mammal, but know how damaging global warming will be in fifty years. Excuse me if I don’t vote democratic on environmental grounds in the next election. Their seems to be an 800 pound gorilla in the corner of global warming’s room.

    Given your thoughts on global warming science (models of the future do not equal true data or something along those lines) I would have thought you would doubt this study on gorillas. Afterall, they didn’t really observe all the gorillas that the article talked about, but rather counted gorilla nests.

    Good point. That’s why I have faith that there are 125 thousand extra gorillas.

    Uh, hate to break it to you, but John McCain is a believer in “Climate Change” too.
