Bookroo's summary
As Arctic ice vanishes, polar bears struggle to survive in a warming world. Discover the mystery behind Earth's rising temperatures and the greenhouse gases trapping the sun's heat. Can we reverse the damage?
From the publisher
In the Arctic, the summer ice is melting, making it hard for polar bears to survive. Why is the world getting warmer? The heat of the sun is trapped by the -greenhouse- gases that surround Earth–carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapor.
