They say seeing really is believing and if any film can convert the climate-change sceptics, it’s being shown at a Kent cinema this week.

The wonder and terror of our rapidly shrinking glaciers is highlighted in a special showing of the award-winning documentary Chasing Ice.

Over three years, the Extreme Ice Survey used revolutionary time-lapse photography to record what was happening to the glaciers in Greenland, Iceland and the sub-arctic.

The film that followed by acclaimed director Jess Orlowski is a stunningly beautiful and stark record on what is happening to the world’s climate and the extraordinary images of crumbling icesheets speak volumes.

The film is being shown by Deal With It – a local green group in Deal.

Organiser Steve Wakeford said: “We have wanted to show this amazing film since it was released in 2012. We are using the film show to highlight the work of Greenpeace to save the Arctic for all of us.”

After the film, there will be a brief talk from Greenpeace on the Save the Arctic
Campaign.

Chasing Ice is at the Astor Community Theatre, Deal on Sunday, November 17 at 7.30pm. Doors open at 7pm, admission is £5. Call 01304 370220.
