Should Polar Bears be listed as an endangered species? Summer sea ice in Alaska last year shrunk to about 1.65 million square miles last year, the lowest level in 38 years of satellite record-keeping and nearly 40 percent less ice than the long-term average between 1979 and 2000. Some climate models have predicted the Arctic will be free of summer sea ice by 2030. A U.S. Geological Survey study predicted polar bears in Alaska could be wiped out by 2050.

  There is very specific criteria to adding animals to the endangered species list, I don%26#039;t think the polar bears have reached that point. Even if they were listed what good would that do. It was not easy to stop the production of DDT when we found it was making the eggs of bald eagles fragile. Think of all the things we need to do to stop global warming. I expect some great disaster before people wake up to the harm global warming can do. We can not even convince everyone GW is real.
