The Polar Bear\u00a0Clause<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u201cMost of us would probably have difficulty recalling the statistics that flowed so\u00a0<\/em>
\npersuasively throughout Al Gore’s elegant film, An Inconvenient Truth.<\/em><\/p>\n

The drowning polar bear was another matter!<\/em><\/p>\n

The bear was the film’s saddest sight and the thought of the North Pole’s most powerful creature struggling to span
\nthe ever-increasing distances between Arctic ice floes was eloquent proof of photography’s ability
\nto carry an argument across another of nature’s great expanses.I’m talking about the gap that exists between the brain and its even more influential partner, the human heart.<\/em><\/p>\n

Al’s flow charts made you think about global warming
\n<\/em>but it took the bear to make you feel the heat of the argument.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

David Jenkins\u00a0\u201cImages That Change the World!\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n

David Jenkins vision is to create\u00a0‘Images that Change the World’<\/em>\u00a0and that show\u00a0‘Reflections of the Spirit’!<\/em><\/p>\n

Today with the crisis of climate change, over population and the continued rapid degradation of the Earth David believes even more passionately
\nin the power of great images\u00a0to talk to people\u2019s hearts and affect change.<\/p>\n

He is therefore looking for opportunities to work alongside scientists,\u00a0educators and environmentalists to help illustrate
\ntheir discoveries,\u00a0making them easier for people to understand and appreciate.<\/p>\n
