Trump sculpture on Arctic glacier planned as climate-change protest
FOX News ^ | May 11, 2018 | By Benjamin Brown

Although President Donald Trump might be skeptical of climate change (or global warming, if you prefer), activists in Finland hope to use the commander-in-chief's likeness to draw awareness to the issue.

They plan to carve Trump's image into the side of an Arctic glacier.

The group, called Melting Ice, is looking to raise 400,00 Euros (about $476,988) to fund "Project Trumpmore," and create the roughly 115 foot-tall ice sculpture in a glacier that is melting.

"We don't simply want to build a monument, we want the project to be bigger and raise the topic of climate change on a broader scale, so that people talk more about climate change," Nicolas Prieto, the group's leader,

So much wasted energy. So little brain cells.

They found this melting glacier which is melting, and they will carve Trump’s face in it so that it will melt. And when it melts, they will say “Behold! Melting! Be concerned!”

I hope they carve the Ice Berg and the currents take it toward the poll. There, permanently frozen, will be a lasting edifice of President Trump.

More likely; they will have to tow it to a warmer climate so that it will melt.

If they had true faith (or at least any balls) they’d try this stunt in October. But too much risk of being trapped in sea ice through the winter. Pencil neck geeks, all of ‘em.

And so how much carbon will they produce just to get there?

I imagine they’ll use chain saws to carve with.
Unless they are battery powered, charged by solar cells, they’ll burn more fossil fuel, creating the dreaded carbon emissions.

All to draw AWARENESS.

Just further proof that this nonsense is about politics and not science.

“to draw awareness to the issue”

I think there may be a small isolated tribe somewhere in the jungles of madagascar that is unaware of this issue

Diamonds may be forever but glaciers are not. They are made of ice. When a planet is emerging from a mini-ice age they tend to melt.

What the hell is wrong with these people?

Never mind. I got carried away. I know what is wrong with these people. They are empty-headed radical-leftist sheep.

Also, I’ll bet they have not considered the permanent environmental damage their carving will do to the glacier. Of course, it would be the ultimate irony if they did carve Trump’s face in to a “melting glacier” and it was still there and recognizable five years later.

POTUS can’t do it, but it would be hilarious if the Trump Organization would put together Arctic cruise packages to see this if they carve it.
Think of the fossil fuels that would be expended to go see it!
