World population of the polar bears with global warming?

The world population of the polar bear is around 22000. The jury is still out on the global warming theory, as there is recent evidence (From Nasa) that it may not be as big a problem as once thought.


How will global warming effect polar ice caps?

Global warming is causing polar ice caps to melt at an accelerated rate, leading to rising sea levels and loss of habitat for polar animals such as polar bears and penguins. The melting ice caps also contribute to further warming as the reflective surface is replaced by dark ocean water that absorbs more heat from the sun.


How many polar bears die each year not due to global warming?

Bears have no predators other than man. They are not being killed by disease. So apart from global warming the only other way they die is by hunting.Hunting of polar bears is allowed to native groups in all the countries around the Arctic Circle. There is a quota allowed. In 2011 the quota for Canada is 500 bears. In 2011 in Russia the quota was set to zero. No bears were allowed to be hunted.


What animals will be affected by global warming first?

Animals in polar regions, such as polar bears, penguins, and Arctic seals, are already being impacted by global warming due to melting ice caps. Other vulnerable species include corals, sea turtles, and certain bird species like puffins and albatrosses that rely on specific habitat conditions that are being altered by climate change.


What is the cause of the warming of the atmosphere?

The primary cause of the warming of the atmosphere is the increase in greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, which trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere. Human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation, contribute significantly to the rise in greenhouse gas concentrations, leading to global warming.
