3. Coordinate a company of biologists, scientists, geographers and
specialists to examine the state of (abundance, patterns, trends, future
predictions etc) of flora and fauna, especially for more threatened animals
such as polar bears whose habitat are quickly being destroyed
a. Once information is coordinated, can begin to inform public about
how they can help save the tundra through social media,
billboards, radio ads, newspaper articles and forums for
information and potential trips to the area
i. Public could limit their carbon footprint, reduce air
pollution by taking public transport and recycle and revise
their water usage
b. Could then also apply knowledge directly to tundra and see if it is
possible to plant more moss or lichen to help bring up populations
of land-based animals, examine fish populations as a food source
for polar bears coming into community and onto land, as well as
upgrading the bear control with a vehicle more protective than a
quad bike and potentially surveillance cameras to detect bears
quickly and as efficiently as possible
4. Also help educate native Inupiat people on how to react when faced with
a polar bear or upon sighting one in the community. Information sessions
such as this could also extend to a kind of kid’s club to help educate
younger generations it will have a greater impact on in the future and also
encourage youngsters to become involved in traditional Inupiat practices
