A starving polar bear
This campaign, The Melting of The Poles, aims at putting in the spotlight the issue of the reduction, each year, of the ice sheet covering the Artic ocean which jeopardises the survival of animal species such as polar bears.
It will also highlight how faster the Antartica has been melting in the recent years and what does that mean for all of us.
This campaign will bring you the facts about these issues as well as giving you concrete and immediate actions you can take to be part of the much needed collective effort to tackle them.

The facts
The Antarctic has registered a temperature of more than 20C (68F) for the first time on record - a full degree higher than the previous record of 19.8C taken on Signy Island in January 1982.
Scientists estimate that if current forecasts are correct about the future extent of sea ice, then two-thirds of the polar bear population will become extinct by 2050.
A billion toothbrushes will be thrown away in the U.S. alone this year, most of them plastic. The majority will end up in landfills or in our oceans and destroy marine wildlife.
The Environmental Medium Toothbrush
Greenhouse gases emissions contributes to Global Warming. Globally, the primary sources of greenhouse gas emissions are electricity and heat (31%).
Sponges may contain plastics, dyes, and synthetic disinfectants. Whether you're tossing it weekly or annually, use one made from natural and sustainable materials

If all the ice on Earth melt, the Netherlands will have long since surrendered to the sea, and most of Denmark will be gone too.
Almost every marine organism, from the tiniest plankton to whales and polar bears, is contaminated with man-made chemicals, such as pesticides and chemicals used in consumer products.

I CARE. I DRAW. I SUPPORT.
HERE IS HOW YOU CAN
£90 is what Pierrick’s awesome featured print will cost you but above all what will be given to his chosen charity – Greenpeace.
Here is what Pierrick has to say about it all –
“Greenhouses gases are a real issue to tackle climate change and has an already visible effect – the Poles are melting.
Reducing your meat consumption, switch to electric cars or just switch off your computer overnight will make a difference.
I support Greenpeace in their relentless green watch over governments and corporations and their fight to preserve our wildlife and environement”

FAQs
We've created a 'Tree Fund' with the amazing people at JUST ONE TREE (www.justonetree.life). You can see our logo on their partners page.
JUST ONE Tree is a non-profit initiative removing CO2 from the atmosphere through global reforestation.
We are particularly keen on participating in their program because of where trees are planted - Zambia, Indonesia, Madagascar or even in Oceans (they plant kelp).
The percentage varies from artist to artist. Anything sold and coming from the Drawing United studio means that 50% of the sales profits wil lgo towards our 'Tree Fund'(or at least 2 pounds = 2 trees planted)
As an example, say you bought a £80 artwork and the artist sale's profit is £40. The artist agreed on giving away 50% of it, that is £20 would be added to the fund, or 20 trees planted!
Every time we add money to our JUST ONE tree fund, a receipt is sent to us and will be published on this page of the site.
