In the summer of 2016 I had the trip of a lifetime; up the west coast of Greenland and then over into the high Canadian Arctic . . . the Northwest Passage. It was a trip of epic proportions aboard a friend’s extraordinary yacht, a privileged front-row seat in the most dramatic theater of rapid climate change on the planet.
While there, I was profoundly moved by the austere and severe beauty of the landscape, the wildlife, and by The People in the Inuit villages. Virtually every day we encountered undeniable indicators of climate change and those constitute the core of the message I have since been widely sharing.
This is a 6-minute Pecha Kucha presentation highlighting the major – and often unexpected – climate change indicators we saw.
Climate change is obviously not a ‘hoax;’ the core questions we must all ask ourselves pertain to what extent are we actually culpable, as well as what we as a species can do about our contribution to it all.
To do nothing is unconscionable.
What I saw and otherwise experienced up there – all under the midnight sun – was, in a word, transformational.
The arctic collection
I'm offering the images in this collection in our three standard sizes. I am pleased to make prints of any other of the Arctic images by special request. Dye Sublimation prints are also available in custom sizes.
The following are just a sampler of what we beheld up north.
If you are interested in me presenting my Arctic Observations, please inquire.
