Climate Impact Documentation Patagonia, Chile & Argentina

Ricardo Scheleff, GP Chile and Joris Thijssen are standing on a mountain in front of the Grey Glacier in the Torres des Paine National Parks holding a banner saying " Stop CO2". The Arctic Sunrise will be touring Patagonia and Chile for 4 weeks, investigating the extent to which the glaciers and ice-fields there are disappearing. The research team's findings confirm that a number of large glaciers, such as the San Quintin and Upsala glaciers, part of the Northern and Southern Patagonian ice-fields, have significantly thinned and have retreated several kilometres in recent years.
