ICSC went to Guiuan, Eastern Samar in support with WORTH Initiative to conduct a workshop series on Gender and Development (GAD) and Climate Change Planning. The workshops aim to enhance local development plans and budget to be responsive to both gender and development and climate change adaptation efforts in the municipality of Guiuan.
One of the highlights of the workshops is photo voice, where the participants take photos in the ground based on several research questions focus on climate risk and vulnerability assessment. The participants visited wo sites in Guiuan, in Brgy. Campuyong which is a coastal community and also a small island, in Brgy. Trinidad in Tubabao island.
Photos taken by: ICSC staff and participants of photovoice workshop.
A polar bear photographed from the deck of the Greenpeace ship, Arctic Sunrise, in drifting and unconsolidated sea ice in Kane Basin, off Cape Clay, northern Greenland, at a position of 79 57.359N 064 51.120W.The bear came within 2 metres of the ship, after moving very fast across the ice towards the bow. Sensing food, it sniffed the air and stayed near the ship for nearly 10 minutes before leaving to hunt a seal in the distance. Polar bears cannot survive without sea ice, using it to raise their young, to travel and as a platform for hunting seals -their primary food source. This bear appeared to be in healthy condition, however the species is threatened with extinction because climate change is causing its sea ice habitat to melt away rapidly.A team of scientists are on board the Arctic Sunrise during the 1st leg of the Greenpeace 3-month long Arctic impacts expedition, to document the effects of climate change on the Arctic environment ahead of the Copenhagen summit due to be held in December 2009. © Nick Cobbing/Greenpeace
Images made during the 12th pass of a section of the Petermann glacier in Greenland, by the 'heli-cam' -a remote camera attached to a small single engine helicopter, triggered from inside the cockpit by remote control. The camera is connected to a portable GPS and all files are embedded with GPS data concerning position and height at the time of exposure. The helicopter is being launched from a small helipad on the stern deck of the Greenpeace ship, the Arctic Sunrise.

An aerial view of one of the 'upwellings' at the front of Humboldt glacier. Glaciologists working on the Arctic Sunrise became interested in these 'upwellings' or plumes of turbid fresh-water as they contain valuable information about melt dynamics within Humboldt. A large quantity of melt water, flowing from inland, has been making its way to the base of the front of the glacier, via networks of ravines, moulins and channels to cause this upwelling through the salt water in the fjord. The ice debris and surface differences in this photograph show the boundary where saline and fresh water mix.
Humboldt calves bergs into the Kane Basin in northern Greenland, the widest glacier in the northern hemisphere, it has a front of 110 Kilometres across. Humboldt and Petermann glaciers between them (both currently being studied by a Greenpeace expedition) drain most of the ice from the N/W part of the Greenland ice-sheet. Between them, the two glaciers are responsible for 10 percent of the total ice drained from the Greenland ice-sheet.

Activists and concerned citizens from 350 Mass marched through the Massachusetts State House to exert pressure get a veto-proof climate bill out of conference committee and onto Governor Baker’s desk in a series of ongoing protests and actions to urge passage of the clmate bill. They were joined today by children and staff from the Neighborhood Network Center’s CDF Freedom School who support efforts for climate action.

Activists with Little Village Environmental Justice Organization peacefully blockade the Fisk Coal Plant as part of a coalition rally with Greenpeace, 350.org, Rainforest Action Network and allies in Chicago Oct. 24, 2009. The rally is one of thousands of events around the world on a Global Day of Climate Action to change the negotiating environment as the international community heads towards crucial UN Climate Negotiations in Copenhagen in December 2009. The activists were arrested.
A huge iceberg rising 36 metres from the waters of Kane Basin, north Greenland. (79 57.359 N 064 51.120 W). It is likely that this unusual feature started life as an englacial channel within the Humboldt glacier that it has calved from. Englacial channels carry melt-water from the surface of the glacier down to the bed-rock underneath. Because icebergs turn in the water the feature may also have been part of a moulin -a vertical channel draining into the glacier. Glaciologists sometimes refer to these holes within glaciers as "Rothlisburger channels". Rothlisburger proposed a theory of how an equilibrium develops between the external forces of the enclosing glacial structure and the internal pressure, (flow and frictional melt rate) of the water inside. Some of these properties appear to be evident in this iceberg, though the channel may have since been widened and enlarged by the subsequent tidal and surface melting and erosion. This berg was observed to drift to and fro across Kane Basin for some weeks, at different times, grounding on the sea bed, on both the North and South sides.

Meltwater waterfalls cascade over the front of Humboldt glacier, cutting channels into the calving face. Meltwater caused by atmospheric warming of the glacier's surface runs over the ice towards the sea via a network of ravines, eventually flowing into the fjord of Kane Basin.

Humboldt and Petermann glaciers between them (both currently being studied by a Greenpeace expedition) drain most of the ice from the N/W part of the Greenland ice-sheet.

Unusual features in weatherd ice on the face of a berg calved from the Humboldt glacier. The shapes are most likely made by melt-water run-off from the top of the glacier (where this ice came from) and the strong winds inside Kane Basin where the berg now drifts.

The darkened appearance at the base of this section (at the southern end of Humboldt glacier) is a good illustration of the complexity of flow processes within Greenland's glaciers. Debris incorporated into the ice show how the glacier has responded to basal topography at many different scales; the ice has incorporated a range of debris into its flow, from fine dust to large boulders. Glaciologists refer to these processes as "entrainment" (capturing of boulders), "folding" (specific glacial response to underlying topography) and "regelation" (moving of debris by melting and re-freezing action of ice flow). The different layers of debris within this part of the glacier contain different rock types, debris laden ice alters the viscosity of ice.Humboldt glacier which calves bergs into the Kane Basin in northern Greenland, is the widest glacier in the northern hemisphere, it has a front of 110 Kilometres across.

Ice Scream? This (NOT photo-shopped) feature which looks like a face, is caused by dark coloured cryoconite deposits falling on the ice. The darker shade of the cryconite (airbourne dust and impurities carried accross the glacier by wind) lower the albedo or reflectance of the glacier's surface, this causes the ice underneath the black parts to absorb more heat and melt much faster than the surrounding ice. A similar example of lowered albedo occurs when sea-ice melts and disappears, causing the darker coloured sea underneath to absorb more heat. A team of scientists are on board the Arctic Sunrise to study the properties of melt like this, during the 1st leg of Greenpeace's 3 month long Arctic Impacts expedition. They plan to document the effects of climate change on the Arctic environment ahead of the Copenhagen summit which will be held in December 2009.
Two glaciers drain from opposite sides into a narrow fjord, just south of the Petermann glacier on northern Greenland. Pieces of glacier that break off become mixed with thin sea-ice in a jumble of ice fragments on the fjord's surface.

The Arctic Sunrise prepares to leave 'the ice bridge' in the Robeson channel, at 82.4 North, near the border between Greenland and Canada. This is the Southernmost extent of the summer sea ice which usually extends much further south into the Nares Strait, it has receded dramatically in recent years. Greenpeace and leading climate scientists are in Greenland for a 3 month expedition using their icebreaking ship the Arctic Sunrise to gather climate change data for the Copenhagen climate summit in December 2009.
