You might have read in a previous post ("Something afoot in the Arctic") that the Greenpeace ship, Arctic Sunrise, is currently at the Petermann Glacier in northwest Greenland as part of a 3-month expedition. The crew on board the Arctic Sunrise, which includes many respected scientists, is examining the effects of climate change on the Arctic. Specifically, they’re bearing witness to the imminent loss of a 100 sq. km. ice island that is part of Petermann glacier. This video serves as an introduction to the ship tour and what they’ve found so far.
