Documentary: ‘The Color of Ice’ af Anders Graver

af Anders Graver
 
A pair of scientists, William and Christopher, are on a critical mission to the Greenland, where they confront the accelerating impact of climate change on the ice sheet. Equipped with the groundbreaking “Hotrod” drill, they seek to unlock secrets buried in the ice. Deep ice temperatures may hold the key to predicting future sea-level rise. The science mission is urgent: the world needs to take informed climate action, and each day brings us closer to the tipping point after which the effects of climate change on the ice sheet may become irreversible. Each day on the ice brings new challenges: extreme cold, equipment failures.

With time running out, they must push their technology and their endurance to the limit. But it’s not just about the science, we already see the human cost of climate inaction. Local hunter Olennguaq has spent his life navigating Greenland’s frozen landscape, but the rapidly changing ice conditions now pose a serious threat to dog sledding on the sea ice. His normal spring sledge route between Savissivik and Pituffik is now open water. As he shares his story of lifestyle change, it becomes clear that the consequences of global warming are already being felt by communities on the front lines. With breathtaking cinematography, we are served a powerful message: we need every brick on the path toward a sustainable future. Scientists and hunters lead the rallying cry for individuals, governments, and societies to respond to the looming climate crisis before it’s too late.”
