MSNBC reports that hundreds of naked bodies formed a “living sculpture” on Switzerland’s Aletsch glacier Saturday.

Tunick is a New York artist famous for his pictures of nude gatherings in public settings around the world. This photo shoot was designed to draw attention to the effects of global warming on Switzerland’s ever 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.

They also say that most of the Swiss glaciers will disappear by 2080 if global warming continues.

I am sure 100 sweaty and hot naked bodies lying atop a glacier can only melt it faster. If we get many more photo shoots like this, we wont need supposed global warming as we will have done the job ourselves.

Nice going guys. The Swiss make better time-pieces then common sense decisions about Global warming projects.

I mean, this kind of idiocy just upsets me. It's basic science really. Put your warm finger on an ice cube and watch it melt.

If an intelligent alien species saw this pic, they would turn tail and run, thinking they were dealing with some form of stupid seal/homosapien ritual.



Speaking of stupid humans and how they sabotage their own green agendas, check out this gadget I found on Treehugger.com. Whoever invented this one has a rare condition, where they fart from the brain, while good ideas go down the toilet.

This thing changes colors the faster you type. I guess the idea is to watch your words per watt/hour ratio. BS. All this accomplishes is the birth of yet another crappy plastics product, while it sucks electricity. And even if it was helpful, you wouldn't know because you have already grown tired of your new glowing tinkerbell trinket and unplugged it already. Now it and it's five million brothers are just another waste of space.

Don't tell Chris about that device ok?

The morale of the story? If you give a hoot, don't pollute. Get the hell off the ice and wise up already. Be constructive. Ride a freakin bike. And never allow a hundred people to be photographed lying on ice. It's disturbing.
