Enviro-Math with Don

5000 polar bears + 17,000 polar bears = 22,000 polar bears - 15,000 polar bears = impending doom, I tell you! Or, historically, whatever.

The seals will be happy to hear that. Earth gets warm, earth gets cold. It happens. Sometimes the sky falls, too. I suspect a study of frozen polar bear poop cores in the pack ice would show us that polar bear populations have risen and fallen with temperatures and other factors for as long as there have been polar bears.

    NYT article says: “In some places, the bears have adapted to eating a wide range of food like snow geese and garbage. ”

    They are freaking bears. They can and will eat anything (including you) that does not eat them first. If they are not being hunted excessively, they will get along fine, with or without, ice.

    If the ice melts, they should just diversify and get jobs selling other stuff besides Coca-Cola. (Actually, Robert is right, polar bears will adapt by moving south and eating more squirrels and dogs).
