Polar marine ecosystems are particularly sensitive to climate change because small temperature differences can have large effects on the extent and thickness of sea ice. Animals that rely on sea ice, including seals and polar bears, are experiencing habitat loss, forcing them out of breeding and hunting grounds.

I think scientists do need to be concerned. Global warming will lead to even worse climate changes. There has been an increase in wildfires, heatwaves and droughts. This will lead to shortages and struggles globally. It’ll lead to increase greenhouse gases and rising sea levels.
