Norvergence: Why should we Care about Polar Bears?

As Norvergence revealed in its previous article that 2018 was marked as the lowest Arctic sea ice extent, many people wrote us emails asking about the state of Polar bears.

Norvergence is not only trying to raise awareness about how global warming is contributing to the loss of sea ice but also how polar bears are moving towards extinction.

Last year, the US Geological Survey and UC Santa Cruz completed a 3-year period study on nine polar bears. When Norvergence analyzed the report submitted by the institutes, it found heart-wrenching results.

1.       Five out of the nine bears were unable to eat sufficient food that resulted in plummeting body weight. It means that they are not been able to fulfill their bodily demands.

2.       Receding sea level is making really difficult for polar bears to hunt.

Since the past few years, organizations and many notable personalities have taken some actionable measures to save polar bears but it is not enough. Norvergence appeals to all of you that this is the time to raise your voice for this beautiful creature.
