If Arctic sea ice melts in the summer, will polar bears survive?

I came across several articles today that said arctic sea ice could be completely melted by 2016 in the summer. What does this mean for polar bears?

    They are already dying. They remain trapped on the floes that break off and can't get back to mainlands.

    Sad but true.

    Dont have faith the media, polar bears are thriving, their numbers are increasing. The time-honored image of a polar submit to status on a tiny ice floe became image-shopped (fraud) thats how lots you may have faith the media.

    If all the solar bears will be listed up and getting protected by any other race of life, they will become extinct .

    Usually only species survive that protecting themselves and not by other species.

    polar bears descended from other big bears and adapted to live in the northern ice regions.

    they will adapt again or go extinct

    extinction is forever. nothing ever repeats exactly
