Machines, factories, polution, global warming.- We all hear about how bad these things are, we know they can affect us but no one really sees it. Well, thanks to Global warming and pollution, it is melting the tectonic plates under the arctic which is causing these large pieces of ice that the bears live on to melt. This means no home, no shelter for these poor animals. as it says right here stated from http://www.polarbearsinternational.org/ "Floods. Droughts. Heat waves. Monster wildfires. Climate change is not just about polar bears, the iconic symbol of a melting Arctic. Global warming affects the entire planet."
Sea ice losses in the Arctic from global warming are the major threat to polar bears. Polar bears depend on sea ice for hunting, breeding, and in some cases, denning. In 2012, summer ice losses in the Arctic were larger than the size of the United States. Biologists estimate there are 20,000 to 25,000 polar bears. About 60% of those live in Canada. Polar bears are also found in the U.S. (Alaska), Russia, Greenland.
Can you imagine a life without these beautiful creatures? How would you we feel, if when we go to the zoo and see no Polar bears there? What if we never get to hear from a child saying, "Wow! mommy what's that?" I know it's hard to think about but in reality it's our fault. We are the ones that cause global warming and pollution, they affect us too! So I don"t see a reason why no one can help it.
