The other reason is that mother bears may not be fat enough to 34 milk for their babies, so some bears could stop having babies.
Polar bears are 35 land animals that eat meat on the planet. They help control other kinds of animals. Losing them would break the balance of their living place.

The study also shows 38 it is possible to slow Arctic melting. Greenhouse gases (温室气体) could lead to climate change. In order to avoid creating greenhouse gases, the world should try to stop burning coal and riding in cars.
Saving the bears is 39 us. Holland, one of the writers of the study, says, “I believe there is hope, but humans need to act 40 to make that hope come true.” Let’s take action to protect our earth and save polar bears.
