i love polar bears!

after hearing about palin voting against policies that directly protect the polar bears, i decided to try to find out ways to help this beautiful endangered species. ever since the coke holiday commercials, i have loved polar bears.

"The Bush Administration has announced that it will protect polar bears as a 'threatened species' under the Endangered Species Act. The decision follows a three-year legal battle waged by NRDC, the Center for Biological Diversity and Greenpeace. While the new protection marks a step forward in our long-term fight to save the bear from the ravages of global warming, the administration's plan is full of loopholes for oil companies and other global warming polluters that will leave the bear vulnerable to extinction. As NRDC and our partners head back to court to close those loopholes and save the polar bear, you can help by urging the Bush Administration to give the polar bear full-fledged protection as an endangered species.

you can order free polar bear stickers by emailing polarbearsosinfo@nrdc.org and requesting the free pack (6 in a pack).
