Counting the Costs by Dillon Marsh
Cape Town photographer and creative activist Dillon Marsh continues doing meaningful project regarding planet environment by visualising simple stats. This time he created accurately scaled ice models depicting amount glaciers lost weight every minute and placed them within typical human environments. His plan for “Counting the Costs” to be a global project, but this first instalment is focussed on glaciers in India, home to some of the highest mountains in the world.
18.64 cubic meters – the average volume of ice lost on Chhota Shigri glacier every minute
62.15 cubic meters – the average volume of ice lost on Tipra Bank glacier every half hour
2.55 cubic meters – the average volume of ice lost on Dunagiri glacier every minute
