September 2009: Drei Artisten balancierten heute auf einem schmalen Band über einen Gletscherschmelzsee. Der Balanceakt auf dem Gornergletscher macht die Dramatik und die Gefährlichkeit des extrem rasch verlaufenden Klimawandels bildlich. Greenpeace fordert mit der Aktion von Bundesrat und Staatschefs, die kaum einschätzbaren Gefahren des Klimawandels und ihre Verantwortung endlich anzuerkennen. Sie müssen die Erde mit wirkungsvollen und raschen Entscheiden zur CO2-Reduktion vor untragbarer Erwärmung bewahren, statt weiter tatenlos auf den Abgrund zuzurennen. Mit dem eindrücklichen Bild beenden die Greenpeace-Aktivistinnen das knapp zweiwöchige Klimacamp im Wallis. © Greenpeace / Christian SchmutzLocations:Alpine Countries-Europe-Gorner Glacier-Switzerland-Valais-ZermattDate:2 Sep, 2009Credit:© Greenpeace / Christian SchmutzMaximum size:3738px X 2397pxKeywords:Climate (campaign title)-Climate change-Climate change impacts-Danger-Day-Glacier melt-Glaciers-Ice-KWCI (GPI)-Low angle view-Outdoors-Performing artists-SnowShoot:Climate Protest with Tightrope Walker on Gorner Glacier in Zermatt SwitzerlandThree artists balance on a tightrope over the water of a melting glacier.
