Hope for the Future

A book by Jane Dugan and Esther Meerschaut. 48 pages.

"The world has changed. Instead of long winters filled with snow and cold, the far north of Canada has winters with warmer temperatures. Both animals and plants are suffering. Polaris Polar Bear is worried, not only about his own future but about the effect this warmer world is having on the food chain. Plants lie at the bottom of every food chain. If the plants cannot survive, how can the animals which eat those plants survive? And if those animals die, so will the animals further up the food chain. Polaris knows that he and the other animals cannot do anything to help the Arctic recover. Only mankind can do that."
