Sitting on (melting) ice to make a statement about global warming

I found this picture yesterday on one of my favorite new Websites, t r u t h o u t.

(At Left) Yesterday, climate activists Lesley Butler, left, and Rob Bell sunbathed on the edge of a frozen fjord in the Norwegian Arctic town of Longyearbyen, in a demonstration to draw attention to global warming.

The picture was accompanied by a story that had some startling and worrying facts about global warming. I will write about those articles a bit later, but you can find them Here.
