A Finnish climate action group is raising $500,000 to carve President Trump’s face into an arctic iceberg according to a press release I received.
In an attempt to prove global warming exists, the Finnish group called Melting Ice wants to carve a 115-foot ice sculpture of Trump’s face into a glacier for an effort they call “Project Trumpmore” and seeks to raise $500,000 to do pull it off.

Press release 26.4.2018
Will the carving of Donald Trump’s face on an arctic iceberg melt or last for a thousand years?
Project Trumpmore is aiming to demonstrate climate change in a monumental way. A Finnish NGO wants to commission a 115-foot tall ice sculpture of Donald Trump’s face in the arctic region to demonstrate that climate change is happening. Like the former US presidents on Mount Rushmore, Donald Trump will have his face carved onto an arctic glacier, in order for it to melt.
- Global warming is one of the most important issues and topics of today. There are still people who ponder whether it’s a real issue. We want to build the monument for all of us, so we can see how long the sculpture lasts before melting. Often people only believe something when they see it with their own eyes, says Nicolas Prieto, the chairman of the association Melting Ice, which is behind Project Trumpmore.
One person can make a difference
The project started when three young men working in the creative field got enough of talking and wanted to act instead. Instead of filling the world with fake news and alternative facts, this project aims to actually show climate change taking place.
- Our starting point was to create something concrete, something people can see and something that makes climate change visual. In general, we believe that a DIY-attitude appeals to people, and it’s certainly the same thing which got us started, Prieto sums up.
Project Trumpmore’s goal is to generate conversation and hopefully catch the eye of anyone who is willing to fund our project.
- This project is a huge challenge and we can’t do this without help. We are now asking everybody to join this movement. It can be made by talking, liking, sharing, funding etc. All possible help is more than welcome.

Project Trumpmore is a science/art project by Melting Ice Association, whose intention is to provide a concrete test that shows whether global warming is true or false. The objective is to sculpt president Donald Trump’s bust into the Arctic glacier and install a camera to the site of the sculpture to live stream its fate. If you want to be involved in sending a message about the hottest topic in the world, come along! Visit www.projecttrumpmore.com and see what you can do to help. Let’s make this happen – together.

I think Josh could memorialize these characters, extremely well!
Perhaps a polar bear or two watching the artists at work? Wearing dinner napkins?

This is really funny. This proves that Finland, Suomi has a great sense if humor…
There hasn’t been any global warming for the last ten thousand years. Just a slight cooling. Part way down the page in the link I provided is an interesting temperature graph of the last 16,000 years.

+1,000,001 for Lee Gerhard reference.
Carve Obama’s bust in the ice instead. This way we can watch his legacy melt along with his face.
Or maybe Hillary’s bust.
They’ll cherry-pick a glacier that’s actually shrinking, not one of the many that are growing.
Icebergs melt? Are they telling us that prior to Trumps election, they didn’t?
Yeah, like the one the Titanic ran into in 1912.
Maybe “lsvalgaard” carved face should be next to ‘Mt. Trumpmore’
lol
Why not Michael Mann’s rear? Eco-tourists can go kiss it.
Well thanks a lot Micheal Jankowski!
How am I going to sleep tonight with that mental image in my head!?
“You’re gonna need a bigger (iceberg)!”
I have to admit … the Left is really good at political theatre. And they recognize that most people just want to be entertained as a diversion from their dull lives. I would LOVE to see such an ice sculpture … and then watch the braying leftists whoop it up when Trump (naturally, and normally) “calves” into the sea. That would be quite a spectacle to watch. However, something tells me that the ice sculptors will be forced to suspend their work due to EXTREME freezing conditions.
Please! WASTE as much of Tom Steyer’s billions on this as possible. Spend the Tides Foundation $$ … just flush as much of it down this spectacle as possible. Let their TDS freak flag fly!
As much as I’d love to see this. I’d imagine this would be extremely dangerous. Dear ol’ dad died making a Trump ice sculpture.
It’s a daft waste of money but harmless. Trump would probably love it. However it would be very dangerous so I recommend they not do it for their own safety.
It’s a daft waste of money but harmless to other people. Trump would probably love it. However it would be very dangerous so I recommend they not do it for their own safety.
These people have obviously never heard of sublimation.
Ahh the CAGW crowd and their symbols.
Any bets that these snowflakes melt before the ice? Say, about when they figure out how much work is involved in carving that berg. Without chainsaws or other power tools? I suppose they could use dynamite like they did at Rushmore. Alfred Nobel would be pleased about that.
Elon Musk has a company that will sell them the tool they need: The Boring Company Flamethrower
I am honestly amazed that not a single person here has yet noted that “glacier” =/= “iceberg.” That the press release uses the words interchangeably is just another proof that the there is no science involved (or wanted) in the climate industrial complex.
Agree, I noticed the same thing. A melting glacier is something very different from a melting (and drifting) iceberg. But then, glaziers in the Antarctic are also very different when it comes to melting, from glaziers in, say, the Alps. But how could one demand that a journalist fathoms such subtlelties?
Maybe a future expedition to witness the horrors of global warming will collide with it.
And just think. Trump could continue to get under their skin centuries after he’s gone.
There’s always a new “Ship of Fools” waiting to be launched.
Ice sculpture is hyuuuge in Scandinavian culture.
Yes, but we use stable, solid lake ice
This scheme must fail according to their own description of what they are attempting:
Would we like to see Mt Trumpmore for the next several centuries? Opinions will vary.
To minimize the carbon footprint of carving Trump’s image into an iceberg, they should avoid using motorized boats to get there with all their equipment. I suggest getting together with the Old Pulteney rowers. Probably includes a supply of Old Pulteney whisky, for which I cannot personally vouch.
Are they the Seven Deadly Finns?
They can do my face for US$50,000 plus expenses.

These virtue signalling environMentalist stunts really expose the cold, uncaring cruelty at the core of the Green movement. Consider that the $500,000 they will throw away in this crass political stunt could provide cleft lip and cleft palate corrective surgeries to 2000 children. That’s 2000 little children that have difficulty swallowing their food and are ostracized because of their facial deformities. I’d love to drag these 3 virtue signalling enviro-slackers into a third world surgery being run by Operation Smile for 5 days of volunteer work, observing and helping the doctors as they decide which children will get surgeries… and which ones will be rejected because there just wasn’t enough money to help them all.
I wonder if that would have even a slight melting effect on their cold, uncaring hearts???

Bravo!
If you love Trump you’ll contribute. If you hate Trump you’ll contribute, If you’re on the fence, you’ll contribute for the sheer entertainment value. Maybe these guys are thinking the $$$ will go into the millions.
After the deed is done, adventurists will travel to the idol and attempt to pee on top of the berg for added color correction.
If those adventurists pee is orange, they need to go see a doctor. Just saying.
What a great movie this would make.
