Rapid evolution shows adaptability of polar bears: study

The gist of this story is that polar bears appear to be a very fast evolving sub-species of brown bears that split off about 150,000 years ago DURING A TIME WHEN THE ARTIC WAS WARMER THAN IT IS NOW.

I bring this story to the attention of ATSer's as it relates to the theory of Antropogenic sources of global warming.

The polar bear DNA provides evidence that the current cycle of warming in the Artic is, in fact, still colder than previous warming cycles.

This information may be used to undermine the current theory of an anthropogenic source of global warming.

In fact - I do believe there is another thread on ATS that provides articles from newspaper archives showing that the artic was warmer and there was even less ice during the 1930's

I do believe that this may be a piece of the puzzle although I understand that there is a difference between localized temperature cycles and global temperature cycles.

However, I believe this article does undermines the current theory that warming in the artic circle is "proof" of anthropogenic sources of global warming.
