The photographer, Spencer Tunick, went down to Switzerland to take pictures of naked people on glaciers.
The statement:
If global warming continues at its current rate, most glaciers in Switzerland will completely disappear by 2080, leaving nothing but valleys and slopes strewn with rock debris. Over the last 150 years, alpine glaciers have reduced in size by approximately one third of their surface and half of their mass, and this melting is accelerating. The Aletsch Glacier retreated 115 meters (377 feet) in a single year from 2005 to 2006
The pictures are simply incredible.
Make a change!
You can sign up for the Greenpeace Seven Steps campaign and start easy: with simple ways to improve your energy efficiency. If you are a student, you can set up a Solar Generation group on your university campus. Vote for candidates that are willing to take on the coal and oil
industry. Stand in front of a bulldozer to stop the build of a new
coal-fired plant. Change the way you use energy. Install solar panels.
Or you can come up with your own audacious means to raise the alarm.
You may not need to get naked, but you do need to roll up your sleeves.
