ANKARA (AA) – Anadolu's senior photojournalist Sebnem Coskun's images of polar regions were showcased at the 36th Visa Pour L'Image, a renowned international photojournalism festival in France.

Coskun's photo series, The Melting World of the Polar Bears, was featured in the festival's climate change section.

The work stems from Coskun's participation in Türkiye's scientific expeditions to the Arctic and Antarctic.

During the presentation of the exhibitions, it was highlighted that the Arctic region is warming four times faster than the rest of the world, with a record temperature increase of 20.3 degrees Celsius (68.5 degrees Fahrenheit) recorded in August.
