Prime Arctic predator and nomad of the sea ice and tundra, the polar bear endures as a source of wonder, terror, and fascination. Humans have seen it as spirit guide and fanged enemy, as trade good and moral metaphor, as food source and symbol of ecological crisis. Eight thousand years of artifacts attest to its charisma, and to the fraught relationships between our two species. In the White Bear, we acknowledge the magic of wildness: it is both genuinely itself and a screen for our imagination. Ice Bear traces and illuminates this intertwined history. From Inuit shamans to Jean Harlow lounging on a bearskin rug, from the cubs trained to pull sleds toward the North Pole to cuddly superstar Knut, it all comes to life in these pages. With meticulous research and more than 160 illustrations, the author brings into focus this powerful and elusive animal. Doing so, he delves into the stories we tell about Nature—and about ourselves—hoping for a future in which such tales still matter.

‘In a distant time on the island of Axis that sat in the southern Atlantic, a translucent blue butterfly fluttered its delicate gossamer wings while dancing its whimsical way through fragrant flowers and ferns in sleepy woodland waking up to a glorious brand new day. Sunlight shone through twisted, thick gnarly branches of trees older than time itself. Standing there, the timeless trees stood like megalithic statues greeting the solar dawn.’ The Wizardly Journey is a colourful and diverse escapist fantasy novel, which is full of interesting characters, each of whom represent the extremes and duality of human nature. Some are dedicated to saving precious lives and fragile eco-systems, living authentically with kindness and courage, while others are selfish and hide a dark agenda. This book will take the reader on a magical journey through different cultures, myths, legends and exotic locations. As well as opening the reader’s eyes to an amazing fairytale, The Wizardly Journey explores very real human issues such as conserving the planet, protecting animals, marine and avian life and the environment. A kaleidoscopic journey through the light and dark energies of humankind, this book will appeal to readers aged 13 and over. Written with the aim to giving animals a voice, The Wizardly Journeydraws attention to animals’ concerns and addressed them with an open mind.

Considered wise and powerful by the Inuit and other Native cultures, and celebrated in legend and literature, polar bears have become a charismatic symbol of animals threatened by climate change in the Arctic ecosystem. Yet for centuries, polar bears were demonized and slaughtered by adventurers who sailed the icy seas seeking wealth and glory. These fascinating stories from northern lands, including Canada, Alaska, Greenland and the Norwegian islands of Spitsbergen, draw from the annals of Arctic exploration and more recent polar bear research to capture the ingenuity, power and majesty of the world's largest land carnivore.

This report is currently available in an electronic format only. To view the report and others published by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), please visit IUCN's website. Governance for sustainability is defined as the set of written and unwritten rules that link ecological citizenship with institutions and norms of governance. It is a complex topic because it addresses the three issues of globalization, democracy and sustainability. No form of governance can succeed if there is no common bond between those who govern and those who are being governed. The real issue is whether the common good, that is, the sustainability of life, can be pursued through democratic forms of governance. This publication compiles information, evaluations and case studies to enable the reader to explore and reflect upon governance for sustainability.
