I believe that the rapid change in temperatures caused by the increase of C02 Admisions is rapidly raising the temperatures of the polar bears habitat. Some argue that‚ we have only tracked a 1 degree temperature change throughout the earth‚ that is a mere change that would not send the ice melting so fast‚ but with some further reaserach i found that a 1 degree temperature change‚ is

We hear all the time about if we don’t stop doing this or this then there won’t be any more Polar Bears‚ etc. But there are so many other species out there that we never hear about that really might have a bigger impact on humans if they become extinct. So that is why I choose to do my project over Arctic Foxes. Slide MM #2 The Arctic Fox (Alopex
