My paraphrased quote:

Original Quote:

“For anyone who has wondered how global warming and reduced sea ice will affect polar bears, the answer is simple – they die.” (Carlton 1)


Original paraphrase:

The simple answer to the people who wonder about how global warming and reduced sea ice is going to affect the polar bears, the answer is they will die.


Properly paraphrased:

The polar bears are going to die if nothing is done to help stop the process of global warming. (Carlton 1)
