06. Polar Bears

From the series "Dream Home"

“Polar bears rely on the ice to freeze over every year in order to survive, a process which is being threatened by climate change. The precarious nature of this "home" is reminiscent of the housing crisis in Toronto, in which a lack of affordable permanent housing keeps many in precarious and inadequate shelter, without access to necessary resources like sanitation and warmth.”
