Το λιώσιμο των παγετώνων καρέ-καρέ


Ο φωτογραφικός φακός του Τζέιμς Μπάλογκ καταγράφει καρέ καρέ το λιώσιμο των παγετώνων, παρουσιάζοντας σε εικόνα τις συνέπειες της υπερθέρμανσης του πλανήτη.

"What we need is a greater political and public understanding of the immediacy and reality of these changes. I believe that this film can help shift public perceptions by telling people a story that is real and happening now," says Balog. <i>C</i><i>ourtesy of James Balog</i><br/><br/><i></i>

Every time we open the backs of these cameras it's like 'wow, is that what's just happened,'" Balog said. <i>Courtesy of James Balog</i><br/><br/><i></i>Aerial view of meltwater on Greenland Ice Sheet, June 2010. <i>Courtesy of James Balog</i>

We're now at 395 ppm and adding more every year. It's gone beyond natural and is affecting the entire world," Balog says. <i>Courtesy of James Balog</i>
