EPISODE FIFTY EIGHT Poster Bear

Geographical Imaginations - A podcast by Kevin S. Fox | Cultural Geographer

Poster Bear is the second part of a two-episode exploration of two polar bears—the one that travels along the ice and the other one that circulates in the media.  Joining us is Dorothea Born, a Science and Technology Studies (STS) scholar from Mitteleuropa.  Born’s work examines the polar bear as an icon for the visual communication of climate change in popular science magazines.
