@djlink And in the top photo, the boat is propelled by oar, and in the bottom by gas engine…

@djlink And most telling feature in the two pictures? The 100 yo pic has a man with oars, and the 2003 pic a man with outboard motor.

@jackcole @djlink and the boat on top seems to be wooden while the bottom one is probably made from oil-based polymers

It is amazing how million years old ice can melt in a matter of years.

@DrGeraintLLannfrancheta @djlink I think the point here is not really a concern about the ecosystem in the arctic.
It’s just to quite literally illustrate the change in climate.
