The beauty and the horror


In the " No impact man " post on the 23rd i showed a photo of a polar bear i picked up from Colin's blog. I kept thinking of the image and about this amazing animal up north and just had to google some more photos. I need to share these with you.




 So now to the reality of the horror they are living today due to our ignorance.




Global warming is the most significant threat to the polar bear, primarily because the melting of it's sea ice reduces the ability to find sufficient food. The male has to swim long distances to search for his food and often drown from exhaustion in the water, not finding enough ice to walk on. He is weak and hungry and can not arrive with food for his waiting family.







See the important book or  the blog by Steven Kazlowski, a wild life photographer.
i also like the environmental blog utne.com/blog for news and information. And further more on Terrapass blog.

Let's keep these images in mind,
Gunn
