Antarctic ice sheets are formed when glaciers meet the sea.
Things are changing down in the Antarctic. Up until recently, you could pretty much describe the ice sheets there as big, cold and slow. But now, as climate change has an effect on the bottom of the planet, we're seeing news stories about changes in the ice occurring much faster than has been expected, revealing new insights into how the ice sheets of our planet behave.

That was bound to get your attention. And that is precisely what 600 volunteers thought when they took off their clothes on a glacier in the Swiss Alps to call for action against climate change.
The nude volunteers posed for our Swiss office and renowned installation artist Spencer Tunick on the Aletsch Glacier. Known around the world for his installations, Spencer Tunick wants people to know that global climate change is not an abstract issue, but a hazardous threat which affects us all.

Independent scientists on board the Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise have made a dramatic discovery about the Greenland glacier Kangerdlugssuaq. Preliminary findings show that the speed of the glacier has increased beyond all expectations and it is now travelling at three times the speed it was in 1988 making it one of the fastest moving glaciers in the world.
