Help Stop Global Warming, Save the Polar Bears
Stop Global Warming, save the Polar Bears!How many Polar Bears does it take to change a lightbulb?
Well, if we don't start changing lightbulbs to compact fluorescents - and take some other simple measures to help stop the earth from getting warmer, there aren't going to be any Polar Bears. They depend on great sheets of ice - or floes- which are melting because of emissions from the fossils fuels we burn. Their habitat, the Arctic, is warming almost twice as fast as the rest of the world, with significant impacts apparent right now. Scientists say that average winter temperatures have increased as much as 7 degrees Fahrenheit in the past 50 years. The Polar Bears are drowning in increasing numbers because the ice floes that they depend on for survival are getting fewer and farther between.
You can do something about it. You can get others to join the Stop Global Warming Virtual March.

A couple weeks ago I scanned around, looking for some information on how the unseasonably warm winter was effecting the polar bears- I found nothing. I suspect it was a tragic year, with the lack of ice.

I suspect the same thing too. Very bad. BTW thanks for your comment. I've just left one on your latest post about Harper/Bush. Yours was a very good post.
