A cooling trend will be devastating to the already threatened polar bear population. The beloved white behemoths need open water to hunt, or at least many openings in the ice.

If the sea freezes over, reducing the number of patches of open water, the bears will not be able to hunt. Their population will decline.

Polar bears trapped beneath thick Arctic ice may drown, and their bodies will pollute the delicate marine environment beneath the sea ice.

I offer to perform a study for merely costs plus a humble per diem to determine how many holes we need to blast in the ice to save the bears. I will conduct the study on site from a suitable vessel. I will compare the Arctic environment in the Northern summer to the winter environment in the Caribbean or in the Sea of Cortez near Muleje or La Paz.

The UN can use my data to develop effective nonjudgmental policies to save the bears. I will need a Freeper crew, too.

I am in for just a meager stipend that equals the cost of Jet-A fuel that Al Gore burns each year in his travels.

In the spirit of your offer, I think we need a global conference to review the data. Let's not be extravagent. Let's keep within the confines of the UN IPCC and hold our conference for a month in Bali with appropriate per diems all around.

To support your efforts, I propose to start a nonprofit whose goal is educating the public on your activities. We’ll do public service announcements, hold celebrity fundraising events to raise awareness, all the usual. We’ll do a full length documentary of your efforts. I might even share my Oscar with you. I’m going to need a staff, an Escalade, a helocopter, and a film crew, so I can video document your rescue efforts. Oh, and of course, I’ll need this “reasonably” funded.

Permission to come aboard Sir?

(Mind if I bring my fishing tackle?)
