A 3,920-kilo piece of iceberg and 540 litres of water from Greenland were transported to Scotland to visualise the climate changes to the participants of COP26 by Blue Water Shipping.
During the climate summit, the iceberg took part in an exhibition where participants could see the ice slowly melt as an Arctic feature to demonstrate the consequences of global warming. The participants could also taste the crystal-clear water from Godthaab Fjord.
“After both iceberg and water were loaded by Blue Water’s local staff in Greenland, it was shipped to Iceland with a week’s delay on the way. Needless to say, our employees were in a hurry to make it to Scotland in time.”
“After a short negotiation with the Icelandic customs authorities, our terminal workers could finally reload the iceberg, after which they were allowed to seal the cooling container and deliver it to the shipping line sailing it to Scotland.”
