Oxford Institute lecture

Project Pressure photographer and founder Klaus Thymann spoke recently at the Oxford Internet Institute event “Changing Behaviour: Participation, Influence and Impact” – alongside the BBC’s Holly Goodier and technology journalist Aleks Krotoski. His talk gives a good overview of the project and our interactive online platform, MELT.


 

Darran Mountains, New Zealand

pp_news_DarranMountains
Project Pressure photographer Klaus Thymann recently returned from our first expedition to New Zealand, where he photographed and data-logged glaciers in the Darran Mountains of Fiordland National Park (pictured). Working with glaciologist Dr Trevor Chinn, the team travelled by helicopter to enable them to visit Mount Tutoko, Mount Madeline, Mount Gunn and Mount Prembroke. This is one of the few places in the world where lush temperate rainforest and glacier-covered peaks exists in such close proximity, and we’ll bring you more photographs as soon as they’re processed and graded.

Feature on BBC Radio’s One Planet show

Some Himalayan glaciers have actually grown during the past decades, according to a report in the journal Nature Geoscience. We took along a BBC-quality recorder with us on our 2012 Nepal expedition, and spoke to some of the scientists trying to get better data from the mountains.
