Our journey started at 03:30, as we woke up. Then we prepared us for our trip to the "Aletschgletscher". Firstly took the train from Winterthur at 04:30 to arrive to Zurich. There we took the train to arrive to Bern. After that, we took another train to arrive to Interlaken Ost. Lastly, we took an interregional train from Interlaken Ost to arrive to Grindelwald "Terminal".

When we arrived at the «Terminal» of the Jungfraujoch, we saluted our team. There was Prof. Dr. Daniel Farinotti, his student Jane, Mrs. Suter, two camerca guys and a women as well as a guy that where there as investors from the market agency "La Prairie". More...

Glacier melt - Interview with Prof. Dr. Daniel Farinotti

This interview was taken the 28 May 2021 directly on the "Aletschgletscher"

- Is "artificial snow" efficient enough to save glaciers?

- "It is instantly efficient, but in general I think that glaciers are condemned to die. So the glaciers won't grow in the future."

- Do you know countermeasures to stop the glacier melt?

- "Artificial snow is only one possibility. Another one is to reduce the emissions."

- Will you vote for the "glacier initiative"?

- Obviously!

- Is it realistic to reduce the emissions to zero by the year 2050 as the Paris climate agreement wanted?

- I think it's not so realistic.

- Is water more important than the fundamental part of a glacier?

- Sure it is! A glacier consists to 99% of water.

In the next week, we will have four other questions for Prof. Dr. Dario Farinotti, that today was very occupied during his research on the "Aletschgletscher".

Kerala depends on the neighbouring states for most of the resources including food items. The changing pattern of resource consumption in Kerala during the past 50 years has promoted the state as one among the top most consumer states of the nation.

We are unaware that Kerala is one of the biggest exporters of Britain. Now, we came to know that this is the time to save our earth.Youths are usually not interested in farming, mostly due to their perception of farming being antiquated and unprofitable. In a conference organized for youths, almost all the youth respondents are of the view that the main reason for repulsion from practicing farming is that farming is non – lucrative.

We have completed an interview with a farmer in Kerala. After a good study of the topic made us feel that we should promote Organic Farming.
