Scientists plan to ship ice to the Antarctic


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

Scientists are planning to ship ice to the Antarctic. They're afraid that mountain glaciers around the world are melting as a result of climate change and want to store samples of ice in a new vault in the coldest place on Earth.

At 4,350m the Col du Dome sits just below the summit of Mont Blanc.

Covered in snow, it appears to be a permanent, frozen fixture in the Alps - but looks can be deceptive.

Only safe for decades or centuries. I'm surprised decades even come into it but considering how fast glaciers have been melting we might all have to go to Anarctica someday if you want to go sking.
