      According to a U.S. government report Polar bears are at risk of dying off if humans don't reverse the trend of global warming. “The single most important step for polar bear conservation is decisive action to address Arctic warming” the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said in a draft recovery plan, part of the process after the agency listed the species as threatened in 2008.“Short of action that effectively addresses the primary cause of diminishing sea ice, it is improbable that polar bears will be recovered.”§1


Greenhouse gas emissions contribute to global warming, which is reducing the amount of summer sea ice in the Arctic. Polar bears use sea ice for feeding, mating and giving birth. 

The worldwide population of polar bears is estimated to be between 20,000 and 25,000 animals, and they live in five Arctic nations. Alaska is the only U.S. state with the iconic white bears.§2

 

The recovery plan identifies a “suite of high-priority actions to be taken in the near- and mid-term in the United States that will contribute to the survival of polar bears, so they are in a position to recover once Arctic warming has been reduced,”Kohout said. Those goals include better management of not only food production, but deadly interactions with humans, which could increase as people move farther north in the Arctic. They also include protecting the animals' habitats  from humans and minimizing the risk to polar bears from oil spills.§3
