Caldo and glaciers.today, a high-resolution glacier photography project, have joined forces!
“Glaciers serve as huge thermometers for our planet. They show the consequences of climate change without mercy.”
— Jürg Kaufman
The partnership leverages on the combined power of words and images to create better communication about climate change.
Glaciers.today
Is a project launched by the renowned Swiss photographer Jürg Kaufman. It consists in documenting the evolution of the Aletsch Glacier, the largest glacier of the Alps and part of an Unesco World Heritage Site.
One picture every 30 minutes for the next 10 years.
Professional high-resolution cameras will be installed permanently on the glacier taking photos from different angles every 30 minutes for the next 10 years. By capturing unique images of the glacier from the sunrise to the starry night, the project will offer an unequivocal document of the glacier developments.
“Today, the Aletsch Glacier is made up of approximately 11 billion tons of ice. By the end of this century, there might be only few left.”
— Lisa Mazzon
