But before I went to prison, or even the Arctic, I felt the Arctic was a magical place worth saving. Here are a few of my favourite photos of the Arctic.
If you also love the Arctic please leave a comment telling me why you think the Arctic is worth saving.
Take action now to Save the Arctic
It’s one of the last untouched places left on this earth
It’s home to animals found nowhere else on this earth – and the polar bear is the largest land predator on earth (and perhaps the fluffiest).
The whales look like they should belong in a children’s fairy tale book – did you know the narwhals tusk is actually a tooth?
It boasts the world’s most spectacular natural light show – the Aurora Borealis.
First Nation communities have lived in the Arctic for over 1000 years.
And perhaps the most important point…
What happens in the Arctic doesn’t stay in the Arctic – Arctic ice moderates global weather patterns and the melting sea ice accelerates climate change. A frozen Arctic makes our home, planet earth, a much safer place to live.
