Polar bears have lost much of their expanse of ice floes for homes, down to about 10% north of Alaska and the Arctic has been melting for years. Polar bears drown as they swim up to 60 miles looking for a sheet of ice to climb up on. Now the ice dens are collapsing onto the baby bears. Read from NRDC: The reports of polar bear cubs dying as their snowy dens melt and collapse on top of them are heartbreaking -- but, unfortunately, such incidents are likely to continue as the Arctic keeps warming. <br> <br> Since the Obama Administration has not come to the polar bear’s rescue, it’s now up to NRDC to protect them in federal court. <br> <br> Please give whatever you can now to help us win full-fledged protection for polar bears under the Endangered Species Act -- even chipping in $10 will make a difference. We must act swiftly -- otherwise Alaska’s polar bears could be extinct by 2050. //<br> Some parts of the globe seem to be warming a great deal even if some glaciers are growing again and even if record snows earlier than usual occurred last winter. THE ARCTIC IS WARMING; THE ICE HAS BEEN MELTING. POLAR BEARS ARE DYING, lack of home space, lack of food. If the female polar bear isn't fat enough, she can't get pregnant.
