Christian Science Monitor: Polar bears could soon be extinct due to global warming, says a recently released government report. According to the report, which is part of the US Fish and Wildlife Service's recovery plan for the polar bear, approximately a third of all polar bears could face imminent danger from greenhouse gas emissions in as little as 10 years. "Polar bears are in big trouble," Rebecca Noblin, Alaska director for the Center for Biological Diversity, told the Associated Press. "There are other steps we...

Greenhouse gas emissions remain primary threat to polar bears
2015-07-03 17:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Greenhouse gas emissions remain the primary threat to the preservation of polar bear populations worldwide. This conclusion holds true under both a reduced greenhouse gas emission scenario that stabilizes climate warming and another scenario where emissions and warming continue at the current pace, according to updated U.S. Geological Survey research models. Under both scenarios, the outcome for the worldwide polar bear population will very likely worsen over time through the end of the century....

U.S. floats draft recovery plan for threatened polar bear
2015-07-03 04:52:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: U.S. wildlife managers released on Thursday a draft plan for stemming the decline of polar bears threatened by melting Arctic sea ice linked to global warming, but the proposal hinges on reductions in greenhouse gas emissions that are far from assured. Under a plan to be officially submitted on Monday for public comment, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is urging cutbacks in carbon dioxide and other atmospheric pollutants generated by the burning of fossil fuels. The draft proposal does not...

Polar bears will die out if global warming is not reversed, US report finds
2015-07-03 01:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Independent: Polar bears will be wiped out if humans don't reverse the trend of global warming, according to a blunt report by the US goverment. In a draft recovery plan for polar bears produced by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, it says: "The single most important step for polar bear conservation is decisive action to address Arctic warming." "Short of action that effectively addresses the primary cause of diminishing sea ice, it is unlikely that polar bears will be recovered." Polar bears eat, mate and...
Study: Polar bears could feel global warmings sting by 2025
2015-07-02 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Associated Press: About a third of the world`s polar bears could be in imminent danger from greenhouse gas emissions in as soon as a decade, a U.S. government report shows. The U.S. Geological Survey, the Interior Department`s research arm, said updated scientific models don`t bode well for polar bear populations across the world, especially in Alaska. The report released this week is part of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service`s recovery plan for the polar bear. It is expected to be published Thursday in the...
