Greenpeace International - Arctic Sunrise en Groenlandia

'Old Ice' An iceberg made of densely formed ice, often called 'old' ice, shows light transmitted through it. This colour compaction and its green-blue colour suggests it is older than the other ice formations surrounding it. South Eastern Greenland. The melting and freezing of the now fragile Greenlandic ice creates the unique features and colours displayed in these photographs. All photographed from the air. It is predicted that sea-levels may rise by 6.8 Metres were the Greenland Ice-cap to melt completely. Afsmeltningen og frysningsprocessen af den ny sårbare grønlandske indlandsis skaber unikke former og farver, som kan ses i disse fotografier, der alle er taget fra helikopter. Det forudses, at vandstanden i verdenshavene vil stige med 6,8 meter, hvis hele Grønlands iskappe smelter.

Greenpeace races to reach disintegrating glacier

Our ship, The Arctic Sunrise is currently heading north along the west coast of Greenland in a race against time. It's destination is the disintegrating Petermann Glacier, but to reach the glacier our ship must pass through the Nares Strait, which could be flooded with dangerous sea ice at any moment.
