Plot

In "Chasing Ice," we witness the transformation of James Balog, a 'National Geographic' photographer initially skeptical about climate change, into a fervent crusader for our planet's future. Embarking on the Extreme Ice Survey, Balog uncovers irrefutable proof of our rapidly altering world. We journey with him across the frosty expanse of the Arctic as he implements cutting-edge time-lapse cameras, their singular objective: to document the world's evolving glaciers over several years. Balog's eerily stunning videos condense years into fleeting moments, capturing the majestic ice mountains in their hypnotic dance of disappearance. With a daring band of young explorers, Balog traverses three continents via helicopter, canoe, and dog sled. He stakes his career and personal welfare on the line to chase the most significant story of our time. As the climate change debate polarizes America and the severity of natural calamities escalates globally, "Chasing Ice" portrays a valiant photojournalist on a quest to gather incontrovertible evidence and deliver a beacon of hope to our carbon-fueled world. This movie is not merely a record of our changing planet, but also a testament to one man's relentless pursuit of truth and his indomitable spirit in the face of adversity.
