Writer and photographer James Martin has published "Planet Ice: A Climate for Change," a compilation of 120 color photos that capture an in-depth study of glaciers and ice fields and how they relate to our modern-day climate.
To create this book, Martin worked with Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard, polar bear expert Ian Stirling, ice scientist Richard Alley, glaciologist Gino Casassa, and noted writers Gretel Ehrlich, Nick Jans and Broughton Coburn.
His images were taken in more than a dozen different locations, including Antarctica, Greenland, Baffin Island, Alaska, Mount Everest, Patagonia, Mount Kilimanjaro, the European Alps, the Canadian Rockies, Glacier National Park, Ecuador, Washington state and China.
The 176-page hardcover book retails for $39.95.
