Quick action! The comment period has been extended to October 22nd - please spread the word! Protect Polar Bears from Extinction (Defenders of Wildlife) New research by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)
predicts dramatic declines in polar bear populations as global warming melts
the Arctic sea ice these bears depend on for survival. It has never been so urgent
to reduce global warming emissions and protect polar bears from extinction.
In light of these findings, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has reopened a brief,
two week comment period on its January 2007 proposal to list polar bears
as "threatened" under the Endangered Species Act. Submit your official public
comment urging the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to protect polar bears from extinction:
