A recent report
suggests that the Arctic might be entirely ice-free as early as 2020. A large contributing factor to this being human induced climate change. The Arctic is probably one of the most uninhabitable places in the world with months of darkness, temperatures well below freezing and little food growing, yet 4 million people live here in sync with the land and their environment.
These incredible pictures of the Arctic circle remind us why our everyday actions to live more sustainably and combat dangerous climate change are so important. We are a movement, and together we can move mountains and most definitely stop ice from melting away forever.
