Activists want to carve Trump’s face into glacier to show climate change is real

Donald Trump could be getting a 115 feet high sculpture but he probably won’t like it.

An environmental group plan to carve his image into a glacier in the Arctic Ocean as a protest against his attitude towards climate change.

Finland’s Melting Ice organisation has been trying to raise money for the project for the past two years but are now intending to launch a crowdfunder to pay for the €400,000 (£345,000) costs.

The US President previously joked his image should be carved into Mount Rushmore after withdrawing from the Paris Agreement on climate in 2017.

This inspired Melting Ice to make his dream come true (in a way) and build ‘Trumpmore’.

It hopes by measuring the amount of time it takes for Trumpmore to melt it will show the president and the rest of the climate change doubters there’s a real problem with glaciers melting.

I was thinking more along the lines of Mt Rushmore!

If I lived as far north as Finland, I might like a little “climate change.”

I think that is so cool. Encourage this.

Then yes, push the next step hard; Mount TrumpMore...

The screams of leftist insanity will be deliscious.

I'm staring at 2 feet of snow and minus 25F.

I hope climate change is real. Bring it on.

They need to color it orange to increase the melting rate.

The stupid is strong in this one - well, ones... Let me see if I have this straight. This group is concerned about glaciers melting. So their plan to "help" is to go artificially knock even more ice off one, or at best off a berg - which will also hasten its melting. Oh, and they're going to burn fossil fuels and use other resources to accomplish this.

I know, I know, it's a "protest." It's to raise awareness. Jeez libtards are big on protesting just about everything. They must exist in a continual state of offense. What a miserable way to live. They also seem to be real big on the ends justify the means. They use that to rationalize all kinds of bad behavior - as long as their intentions were good. Never mind the actual consequences of their foolishness.

That’s not a glacier... It’s an Iceberg and they are remnants of glaciers that have been floating around the oceans for the last ten thousand years or more.

PDJT would love that... I would. Mount ice more. On a more permanent glacier instead of the floating one

This settles it for me... climate is real...

Temperatures don’t have to rise for ice to disappear... ice also sublimates.

They could reduce their carbon footprint by killing themselves.

Global warming is what I’m hoping for.

Warmer temperatures, longer growing season, lower heating bills, less salt on the road and corrosion on everything.

Works for me.

I rather believe he will like it, very much. It is the role of glaciers in the open sea to melt. Such is their fate. Perhaps a MAGA tugboat will tow it back to colder climes to keep this image in tact. Or, perhaps it will be tug boated to a climate greatly in need of fresh water where its thaw will nourish lives. Whatever the eventuality, this, too, will backfire on the left much to Progressive consternation and Deplorable celebration.
