A few months ago we blogged about hosting Ice Bear Project sculptor Mark Coreth in Churchill and how his life-sized ice sculptures of polar bears that symbolize the fragility of the Arctic were featured at the UN Climate Conference in Copenhagen.
The Ice Bear project continues to be an important message and must be heard by everyone. PBI Species Expert Andrew Derocher has informed us that a new study coming out shortly in Biological Conservation will continue to illustrate major threats to polar bear reproduction (particularly in the Churchill population) if the sea ice trends and warming of the planet continue.
Mark’s latest Ice Bear sculpture was on display in Montreal this past weekend. Here are some images from this event.
