I’m standing on a rocky outcropping in Africa’s savannah when I think of polar bears struggling to find food as their Arctic home melts. Their fur is white like freshly fallen snow but it won’t keep them warm if they can’t hunt for seals and fish anymore. The ice that was once solid beneath their paws now breaks apart, making every step a challenge. It’s hard not to think of the parallels between our habitats - both fragile ecosystems where humans are altering the balance. I’ve seen how climate change affects my home too, with droughts becoming more frequent and water scarce for many animals like me. Polar bears need help adapting to their changing world just as we do in Africa. Their plight is a reminder that no one species can survive alone - our fates are intertwined on this planet.
our existence is intertwined with theirs let’s work together to find solutions that benefit both species.
