Polar bears

Starving to death

Climate changes are here and the ice is melting. The polar bear is literally on thin ice.

After starving in the summer with berries and carrion, the polar bears gain their body fat by hunting seals on the sea ice in the winter. But due to a warmer climate the sea ice extent and the thickness is reduced, as well as the period of maximum ice extent gets shorter year after year.

This results in less time for the polar bears to hunt and less time to restore their body condition to a non-critical level.

You can do something: Reduce your CO2 consumption by eating less meat, turn off electrical devices, and use a bike or public transport more often instead of a car.
