Głodujące niedźwiedzie... tragiczne skutki efektu cieplarnianego

When I recently visited Antarctica my amazement was equal to my sadness. To know that certain creations were facing possible extinction in my life time hurt. I started to follow @sea_legacy created by @cristinamittermeier and @paulnicklen to see what I could do to help, and I saw this photo. It broke my heart, it’s a young Polar Bear with no injuries. It’s dying slowly and painfully because the planet is heating up. Please follow @sea_legacy to help make a change. I realise I need to do so much more to try and save our planet so please help me #sealegacy #saveourseas #turningthetide

Na filmie widzimy wstrząsające skutki zmian klimatycznych. Mężczyzna nagrał umierającego, słaniającego się z głodu niedźwiedzia polarnego w jego naturalnym środowisku. „To miażdżąca scena, która wciąż mnie prześladuje, ale wiem, że musimy dzielić się zarówno pięknem, jak i rzeczami rozdzierającymi serce, jeśli chcemy zburzyć mury apatii” – przyznaje Nicklen.

My entire @Sea_Legacy team was pushing through their tears and emotions while documenting this dying polar bear. It’s a soul-crushing scene that still haunts me, but I know we need to share both the beautiful and the heartbreaking if we are going to break down the walls of apathy. This is what starvation looks like. The muscles atrophy. No energy. It’s a slow, painful death. When scientists say polar bears will be extinct in the next 100 years, I think of the global population of 25,000 bears dying in this manner. There is no band aid solution. There was no saving this individual bear. People think that we can put platforms in the ocean or we can feed the odd starving bear. The simple truth is this—if the Earth continues to warm, we will lose bears and entire polar ecosystems. This large male bear was not old, and he certainly died within hours or days of this moment. But there are solutions. We must reduce our carbon footprint, eat the right food, stop cutting down our forests, and begin putting the Earth—our home—first. Please join us at @sea_legacy as we search for and implement solutions for the oceans and the animals that rely on them—including us humans. Thank you your support in keeping my @sea_legacy team in the field.

Fotograf tego typu publikacjami zachęca do refleksji każdego – jaki wpływ na naszą planetę mają szkodliwe nawyki i praktyki, które w perspektywie czasu skutkują takimi obrazami, globalnym ociepleniem i powolnym, brutalnym wyniszczaniem natury.
