We all know that this isn't the first time that man has screwed up nature and ended up bringing different species to extinction or to the brink of extinction. We've already lost countless species of animals due to our lack of concern and greed.

Having said that, the plight of the polar bears epitomizes just how far overboard we've gone this time by refusing to acknowledge what scientists have been trying to tell us all along. The polar ice caps are melting....fast. We're not talking an act of nature that normally takes thousands or millions of years to take place. We're talking decades, and that is downright scary. Things are changing drastically as we speak, and here we've got a drastically inept president who doesn't know his ass from a melting ice cap!
