Polar Bears make great activists

Over the weekend, two different environmental campaigns caught my attention; both involving Polar Bears:

Last Friday, Action Forward, a Dutch collective, raised this statue in the city of Den Bosch. The statue is made out of tyres and portraits a Polar Bear who throws a oil barrel to the passing cars. The Netherlands counts almost 8 million cars, responsible for more than 20% of the greenhouse gases. That’s why this Polar Bear can’t stand it any longer, he is angry.

Also, enjoy this subtle video - Polar Bear guerilla - Subway (thanks Moritz for pointing me to it)
