08\/12\/2017 – Scheletrico si trascina alla ricerca di cibo. Rovista in un bidone e poi si accascia a terra, ancora in preda ai morsi della fame. \u00c8 l’immagine straziante di un orso polare in punto di morte, immortalato dalle telecamere dell’attivista e fotografo di National Geographic Paul Nicklen e da un team di Sea Legacy mentre si trovavano sull\u2019Isola di Baffin, in Canada.<\/p>\n

“\u00c8 una scena che spacca il cuore, ma che abbiamo scelto di condividere per rompere il velo di apatia della nostra societ\u00e0”, ha scritto il fotografo nella didascalia che accompagna il video postato sul suo profilo Instagram. Immagini che riaccendono i riflettori sul problema del riscaldamento globale e dei suoi effetti collaterali sulla natura.<\/p>\n

My entire @Sea_Legacy team was pushing through their tears and emotions while documenting this dying polar bear. It\u2019s 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\u2019s 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\u2014if 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\u2014our home\u2014first. Please join us at @sea_legacy as we search for and implement solutions for the oceans and the animals that rely on them\u2014including us humans. Thank you your support in keeping my @sea_legacy team in the field.
