I think this is a very cute and ironic article because we are using technology to help the enviroment. It is also cool because we are learning much more from the advantage of having technology.

I think that it is a very interesting article. I would never believe someone that said using power and technology was somewhat "helpful" to the environment. I am just happy with anything if it is helping the environment.

Technology gets better every day... I can't believe were actually using it to help the enviroment!

It is so cool that we have created technology that can film the polar bears in their natural way of doing things. Except for eating the camera of course. I agree with everyone else that we are helping the environment using technology. We observe the polar bears so that we can know how to save them when and if all of the ice melts away. We should still try to stop global warming, but it is good to know that we have some kind of a partial back-up plan.

Polar bears live in an extremely harsh environment that is disappearing because of global warming. They are trying to survive and take care of their cubs. But it’s more and more difficult because of the shrinking ice. They have to swim very long distances. We have to help polar bears survive extinction. I would like to see this documentary.

It is cool that they can film the polar bears! It is good that we are using it to help the enviroment. I wish I could see when the polar bear destroyed the camera that must have been pretty cool. I wonder if different things happened to different cameras and they were all destroyed because they could only prevent against one. I wonder if they tried to disguise the cameras more when the bear destroyed it. If no other bears found the cameras then that bear must have been pretty smart.

I like the idea of trying to blend in the cameras with the ice by making them look like a block of ice. It was interesting to find out that the polar bear could destroy the camera with so little effort. It's amazing how powerful they are.

If people didn't help the polar bears before, maybe they would help them now after they've seen them on camera. Technology is amazing now.

This is an interesting article. It is amazing how powerful a polar bear must be to be able to destroy a glass and steel piece of machinery.
