Polar bears in the Barents Sea population use their environment in two different ways. Bears that spend most of their time offshore are exposed to higher levels of pollutants than bears that stay along the coast due to differences in feeding habits, energy expenditure, and geographical distribution.

I joined Greenpeace on the high seas at the end of their year-long project to abolish a severe threat to our oceans

Today's icy wasteland would've once played host to huge amounts of plant-life – during an unusually toasty period in history 90million years ago.

It’s dubbed "the lungs of the ocean."

To remain active in frigid environments, the bald notothen drastically adjusts oxygen in its blood

Since pre-industrial times, the world's oceans have warmed by an average of one degree Celsius (1°C). Now researchers report that those rising temperatures have led to widespread changes in the population sizes of marine species.
