Their habit is not under serious threat, simply because it isn't. Polar bears who are used to living in temperatures between -30C and 20C or so, will not mind neither 1.5C increase in average temperature nor even twice or four times that.

What would make anyone believe that they would?

They depend on ice and there’s going to be a whole lot less of it at the North Pole, entirely possible that there will be an ice free North Pole in the next two or three decades, habitat =gone.

Global average temperatures aren’t the whole story.
