The Home Of The Polar Bear

“Global warming, caused by the buildup of man-made carbon dioxide is causing arctic sea ice to melt at an alarming rate. Most scientists warn that nearly all of the polar bear's summer sea ice could vanish by 2040… which will prove catastrophic for the polar bear. Unless we take effective action now the polar bear could lose 100 percent of its habitat to global warming and become extinct in Alaska by 2050.”

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Reduce carbon emissions and lower your fossil fuel intake.

• Support policies and organizations working to protect Arctic habitats and combat climate change.

• Reduce plastic waste and participate in cleanup efforts, as ocean pollution affects the Arctic food chain that polar bears depend on.
