Planet Iceland, Fire, Ice, and Wildlife
Iceland does not reveal itself easily. This island with its austere landscapes is often hidden under a blanket of clouds, as if to better preserve its mysteries. Since emerging from the Atlantic Ocean just 15 million years ago, the island has continued to grow, thanks to frequent volcanic eruptions. It is a world that is being shaped before our eyes, reminding us of the Earth's origins.
And yet, as hostile as it may seem at first glance, Iceland is home to life. Vegetation has managed to adapt to the infertile soil and harsh climate. During their migrations, birds have also managed to acclimatize, turning this tormented land into a haven of peace. Even mammals, such as the Icelandic arctic fox, now roam the mountains.
No matter the cold, ice, or storms, wildlife resists and clings on.
But for how long? Because the environment is changing: glaciers are caught between a burning subsoil and a sky that is warming up as a result of climate change. Is Iceland, this young land that bears such witness to the forces of nature, already in danger?
