Overall, the polar bear has a stable population, but some are still hunted on a limited basis. The global warming aspect is still not conclusive, as there has been no warming for 17 years, and the ice pack has grown.

How seriously does the united nations take global warming?

The United Nations has passed resolutions regarding the threat of global warming. The seriousness of the issue depends on the individual nations. The industrialized nations mostly recognize the issue as a threat and, more or less, are addressing it. The poorer third world nations mostly feel that the problem wasn't caused by them and taking measures similar to what the major nations are doing will hamper their development of industry.


How big a threat is global warming?

Chances are, global warming is going to get worse, however, we cannot predict exactly how rapidly this will happen or how bad it will get. My guess is that I will not live to see severe global warming, but the next generation after me probably will. And severe global warming could be very destructive. The immediate threat is that the ice caps will melt, and the sea level will rise a great deal, causing massive flooding of coastal regions. Many other problems are likely to result as well. Things could get very interesting.


What global climatic phenomenon caused the water to rise and cover the island?

Global Warming is the "climatic phenomenon" that is causing the water to rise and cover land.

The melting is making the sea levels rise and cover land.

What percent of the Earth would we save if we stopped Global Warming now?

It is difficult to quantify the exact percentage of the Earth that would be saved by stopping global warming completely. However, halting global warming would help protect ecosystems, reduce extreme weather events, and mitigate the threat of sea level rise, benefiting the planet as a whole.
