Hundreds of naked people formed a "living sculpture" on Switzerland's Aletsch glacier Saturday, hoping to raise awareness about climate change.

The photo shoot by Spencer Tunick, the New York artist famous for his pictures of nude gatherings in public settings worldwide, was designed to draw attention to the effects of global warming on Switzerland's shrinking glaciers.

"The melting of the glaciers is an indisputable sign of global climate change," said the environmental group Greenpeace, which co-organized the event...

Oh, that's just great.

In 150 years, some poor hikers are gonna be hiking along the terminal moraine and proclaiming "This place smells like ass!"

[Toespi]

With all those hot bodies, it is sure to melt.

[Psycho_Bunny]

God, but I hate the human race.

“Why are we freezing our ass off on this glacier? Because of all the global warming!!”

[airborne]

All that body heat must really be melting that glacier!

What are they trying to do?

Flood New York City? (sarcasm)

global warming awareness party at my house!!!!!

“GW” looks and smells like a cult...

What you see after they pull the stopper on the pool at the Kennedy compound.

It looks like for every 1000 guys there, there is only one woman.

I've never yet seen any of these nudie groups that I wouldn't like better with their clothes on.

Not pretty to look at. You think they would agree not to pose nude if we give in on the global hotting thing?

[freekitty]

LOL

[longtermmemmory]

I wanted to get in before the barfy pictures of ugly environmentalists.

BTW thos men are not reaaaaaly “men”. Remember real men don’t go left.

I guess a bunch of dumschitz doing some naked sunbathing doesn’t really hurt anything. If it makes them feel good, go for it. We just have to be careful and watch that they don’t get into human sacrifice to the sun gods like their ancestors did long, long ago.

Wow.... that's what I call an ice sculpture. Libs are idiots.

[Revolting cat!]

Jenna Jemason type close ups, please!

[Gondring]

Wouldn’t be at the terminal moraine...would be on the ground moraine. :-)

But who knows...in 150 years, it might be advanced again. After all, it is longer now than it was at the time of Christ...or back in 1300 BC, when it was 1000 meters shorter than it is today.

If only they’d used hybrid chariots, they wouldn’t have had that problem, obviously!

[goldstategop]

I've heard of nudist colonies but this is a twist on them. No one ever bothered to tell them body heat really actually releases more CO2 and that they in fact ARE contributing to global warming through this kind of stunt. The LAST place I would dream of being naked is atop a glacier.

If Tunick offered to spray them with gallons of elephant semen, practically every one of his pathetic subjects worldwide would eagerly say "Yes, please do!"

The degradation must be incremental of course... Start out with pigs' blood, and make the opportunity seem rare and exciting...

Tunick knows exactly what he is doing. He is a narcissist and a sexual predator.
