Bingo! You are soooooo right. Yes, the icebergs ARE melting and that is threatening the existence of polar bears.

Let's not lose sight of the fact that all these nuclear tests, the wars and ongoing bombings, smoke from fires, automobile exhausts, even something as seemingly insignificent as a fireplace . . . all these things go into the atmosphere. All these things contribute to global warming, climate change or whatever else you want to call it.

It's real folks -- make no mistake about it!
