In an attempt to preserve an ice-grotto tourist attraction at the Rhône Glacier, local Swiss entrepreneurs wrapped a significant section of the ice in a thermal blanket. In their collaborative work, Simon Norfolk and Klaus Thymann address financial issues as driving forces behind human adaptation to the changing climate. A thermal image time-lapse film was also created, showing how glaciers compare to the surrounding landscape by only reacting to long-term temperature changes rather than weather fluctuations.
