Here are some of my favourite outtakes from the story ‘Saving winter’ published in @natgeo. These are square crops which I hate to do but seems to display better on your cell phones ?
During the @natgeo assignment we also covered a remarkable story of the Rhone glacier. For over ten years it has been covered in white blankets every summer designed to protect it from the sun’s heat. The prime goal is to preserve the ice cave at the tongue of the glacier, one of
the Alps’ great tourist destinations.
The Alpine glaciers are disappearing due to global warming. If they all go, the look of the Alps will change for good.
Jose Gomes, who helps maintain the ice cave, stands at the entrance at the Rhône Glacier. @natgeo@insidenatgeo@dominiqueanneh#savingwinter#climatechangeresilience#climatechange#melting#glaciers#rhone#rhoneglacier#alps
