nubbsgalore: destination desolation. photos by sebastian copeland, who travels the earth’s polar regions - even crossing antarctica by kite in eighty one days - to document a landscape he sees as both the front lines in the battle against climate change, and the canary in the coal mine for the rest of us.says copeland, “helping people fall in love with their world is a catalyst to wanting to save it. our actions here, in the industrialized world, are changing this fragile, beautiful landscape forever, and i wanted to ask people to think about that.” “we’re increasingly isolated from the consequences of our actions,” he adds. “your electricity bill, your rubbish disposal, it’s all dealt with easily just by you writing a cheque. but when you’re living in a tent in the snow for weeks at a time, you become aware of every single tin can.” -- source link
