The activists display a banner reading 'Glaciers Need Real Help – Stop Climate Change’ and claim that only a reduction in greenhouses gases will save the glaciers from melting way and not protective sheets as a solution offered by the Austrian government.In original language:Protest auf Tiroler Gletscher gegen KlimapolitikMit einem 45 mal 14 Meter großen Transparent mit der Aufschrift "Klimaschutz statt Gletscherpflaster" haben am Donnerstag zwanzig Greenpeace-Aktivisten aus Österreich und Deutschland am Pitztaler Gletscher auf 3.000 Metern Höhe gegen das "Versagen der heimischen Klimapolitik" protestiert. Das Transparent entrollten die Umweltschützer auf einer Abdeckfolie, einem so genannten "Gletscherpflaster", das gegen das klimabedingte Abschmelzen des Gletschers angebracht worden war.Locations:Alpine Countries-Austria-Europe-Pitztaler Glacier-TyrolDate:4 Aug, 2005Credit:© Greenpeace / Rudi FroeseMaximum size:3008px X 2000pxKeywords:Actions and protests-Banners-Climate (campaign title)-Climate change-Day-Glacier melt-Glaciers-Global warming-Greenpeace activists-Ice-KWCI (GPI)-Outdoors-Small group of people-Snow-YellowShoot:Climate Action at Pitztaler Glacier in GermanyActivists demonstrate against the Austrian government's failure in taking effective measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to tackle climate change and protect the Pitztaler glacier.
