Arctic Climate Models Can Predict Polar Bears' Future

The climate models play an important role in predicting the future of polar bears according to Eric DeWeaver who is the physical climatologist in the International Polar Bear Science Team. These climate models are a great tool, they are like a system of forecast, they predict how climate will respond to changes, perhaps the increase of greenhouse gas in the air, and they also
point to widespread reductions in sea ice in coming decades.
Although, these models are not precisely one hundred percent accurate, they can still certainly tell us how rapidly the climate is changing and how this is affecting the polar bears habitat.
