"Extreme Ice Survey" Movie and Book was created by garyabrill
Just watched another great Bill Moyers interview, this time with James Balog who has spent the last number of years time-lapse photographing the retreat of northern glaciers. www.extremeicesurvey.org/
He has come out with a new book "Ice, portraits of vanishing glaciers" and is coming out with a new movie, "Chasing Ice" that is a Sundance Film Festival award winner.
This looks to be quite interesting material. Balog mentioned that former Seattleite, Tad Pfeffer, was a chief assistant scientist on this project. Pfeffer was a sometime backcountry ski and climbing partner of mine in the mid-80's while he was a grad student in Geophysics at the U of W.

Probably won't be much of a "feel good" kind of film but the visuals certainly will be impressive and amazing. Looking forward to seeing it..
