I may be an idiot; opinions vary.  However, I do try to use current
data.  The link you provided shows a chart titled "Northern Hemisphere
Sea Ice  Anomaly, Anomaly from 1978-2000 mean".  Here is another link
that shows the Arctic Sea Ice from 2004 to March 2008. You will notice
that the sea ice coverage is cyclic with a minimum in the late summer
and the maximum around March.  I don't think that the polar bears have
much to worry about.

"As of March 22, 2008 Environment Canada analysis indicates sea ice
cover over the Northern Hemisphere has reached its maximum extent and
is about 3% above maximum extent reached over the last 3 years. Much
of the thick multi-year ice in the central Arctic Ocean has been
depleted and replaced with thinner first year ice. The amplitude of
the 2007 summer minimum extent to the 2008 winter maximum extent is
dramatically higher than in previous years."
