In a recent report, UNESCO highlighted 5 glaciers on earth being irreversibly affected by climate change, with drastic consequences for the local population. Our team will climb these glaciers bringing images of the problem, and contact local population to register the impact on daily living. (pt version at: http://icecare.blogs.sapo.pt/)

National Geographic Channel suppports Ice Care
I couldn’t be much older than 7 or 8, but I still remember the vast collection of National Geographic magazines at my grandmother’s.
I used to spend hours looking at pictures of remote places and familiar animals.
Little did I know that, the prestigious institution would be using my own material years later.
Recently, over lunch with Fox’s country manager, several collaboration possibilities popped up:
. youtube style videos for NGC’s website;
. storyboard production of a program for the international channel;
. some sort of joint exhibition, of the photos of the expedition or even create a DVD.
These and other formats are still in discussion – One thing is certain – The National Geographic Channel endorsement on Ice Care project is a very important reinforcement for us!
