The good people at the Center for Biological Diversity have declared today "Polar Bear Day." It's not that big a stretch, since a bunch of science-types have declared 2007 the International Polar Year. So what the heck? Help save the polar bear. Incidentally, a little while back I was commissioned to write a report on polar bear ecology and conservation. I'm relatively pleased with it, too, if I don't say so myself.

I think its interesting that the Teddy Bear and Smokey the Bear became so tied with the National park system through Teddy Roosevelt, and now we're tying Polar Bears to closely to Global Climate Change.
Do people know bears aren't nice?
