Polar Bears International (PBI)

In a previous blog I urged readers to find out about what the impact of the melting polar ice is having on polar bears. While there are more polar bears on the planet than there were twenty-five years ago, I think it is important to educate ourselves on what is going on and what the polar bear’s declining habitat means to all of us. Again, I don’t know about all of the issues surrounding global warming, but it’s easy to see that something is going on, and it is directly affecting polar bears. There are several organizations that can help educate you and tell you more about what exactly is happening, like Polar Bears International (PBI).
PBI supports research projects that benefit the world's polar bears, and that is all that I am advocating here – education and research! PBI's educational efforts include a number of innovative projects collectively known as the Adventure Learning Program. PBI's core mission is to conserve the world's polar bears through research and education, and they are dedicated to understanding and communicating all points of view on issues affecting polar bears throughout the world. 100% of all donations go to the initiatives.
