Our ship, The Arctic Sunrise is currently heading north along the west coast of Greenland in a race against time.

      The vanishing of the glaciers is not only a problem of the arctic regions. In Europe, they are trying to cover vast glacier areas with a dark, absorbing material to protect the ice from the sun. Perhaps people will start getting alarmed, when doing wintersports is only possible in extreme hights over 1200 meters.
      We shouldn´t ignore these signs of global warming!

        Should they be burning all that diesel fuel to get there and farting this close to the glacier. They could make it worse.
