The case for climate change is mounted in visually breathtaking yet conventional fashion in Chasing Ice.
Full reviewNational Geographic photographer James Balog journeys to the Arctic seeking visual proof of the effects of climate change. Winner of the Audience Award (Documentary) at SXSW Festival 2012.
"Balog deploys revolutionary time-lapse cameras to capture a multi-year record of the world's changing glaciers. Traveling with a team across the brutal Arctic, Balog risks his career and his well-being in pursuit of the biggest story facing humanity. As the debate polarizes America, and the intensity of natural disasters ramps up globally, Chasing Ice depicts a heroic photojournalist on a mission to deliver fragile hope to our carbon-powered planet."
