Polar Bears and the Greenhouse Effect



Do you like polar bears?

Well, they may not be around for much longer. Global warming is causing the Earth's temperature to increase. As a result, the ice that the polar bears live on are melting more easily and quickly.

So what if the ice is melting?

The answer is simple: the polar bears will find it more and more difficult to hunt and survive.

Why is there global warming?

The Earth is getting hotter each year because the atmosphere is trapping more heat from the sun. This is known as the greenhouse effect. Man's activities such as the clearing of forests and burning of fuels release greenhouse gases (e.g. carbon dioxide) into the air. Greenhouse gases can trap heat from the sun. Thus, the more greenhouse gases there are, the more heat is being trapped!

To find out more about how greenhouse gases can cause global warming, check out this website: The United States Environment Protection Agency

We can recycle paper and save trees so that they can photosynthesize to take away some of the carbon-doixide we have in the air.

we should not burn and cut the forest for polor bears sacks,and the polor bears lived in the cold places such as Antical.When the hot air raises the cold surrounding. All the the ice will melt and the polor bear will have not place to live in. We should protect the polar bears from dangerous.So that the polar bears will not extinct.
