Greenpeace: The Arctic ice we all depend on is disappearing

At the Rio Earth Summit in Brazil Lucy Lawless and Sir Richard Branson launched an ambitious bid to save the Arctic. Greenpeace have also released this video narrated by John Hurt which says the ice at the top of the world reflects much of the sun’s heat back into space and keeps our whole planet cool, stabilising the weather systems that we depend on to grow our food. Protecting the ice means protecting us all.
