Due to climate change and habitat loss, polar bears could disappear off the face of the planet within our lifetimes. Polar bears need sea ice to hunt and survive, but sea ice is melting, forcing polar bears to swim longer distances just to find food. Their homes are also in danger due to oil and gas drilling that destroys essential polar bear habitat, displacing bears, and in some cases, causing mothers to abandon their cubs--who then perish.
These bears need our help to survive. Ask President Obama to protect bear habitat in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and in the Chukchi Sea off Alaska's coasts.
