Global Warming is causing the decrease of polar bear populations due to the loss of habitat‚ scarcity of food‚ and higher mortality rates in pups. There are nineteen subpopulations of polar bears in the world. They are called "subpopulations" because they are not genetically distinct to one area but generally inhabit nineteen different areas across the circumpolar arctic. A study showed that between 2001 and 2010 there was a 40% population decrease of these bears and according to a U.S Geological Survey

Polars Bears are dying because the ice caps are melting because of global warming. Scientist have proof that humans are the cause of most of global warming and it has been that way from the mid-1900’s to now. We need to slow down global warming or the polar bears will die and a lot of other animals that live on the ice caps. If the ice caps melt that will rise the sea level and a lot of people will die. Global warming is getting worse causing melting icecaps which is caused by rising temperatures
