Sugar Bear remind you of melting glaciers and polar bears

The Titanic wasn’t the only one affected by melting glaciers and breaking ice bergs. The fluffy white fish-eating polar bears are suffering too. Global warming is sure taking its toll on the glaciers, melting them away like an ice-cream in the sunshine. So, to spread awareness of this disaster, Jovana Bogdanović came up with an idea that will remind you of melting glaciers and polar bears every time you sip coffee.

Recently showcased at the Milan Design Week, these polar bear shaped sugar cube, known as the Sugar Bear, slowly melts away into your coffee, reminding you of the melting glaciers and the endangered polar bears. Ice is what polar bears love living on, and losing ice due to global warming is sure depleting their numbers. These white cousins of brown and black bears are in danger. It’s about time we take emission reductions and recycling more seriously and control global warming.
