Pixel Movers & Makers

We're Kevin Pluck & Marlo Garnsworthy, and we make inspiring, informational animations.

We've been looking forward to making this!

Iceberg flux from Antarctica from 1976-2017.

Most icebergs travel counter-clockwise around Antarctica before travelling north through "Iceberg Alley" to the ACC.

“It’s a sleeping giant. We’ve woken it.” Our Co-Chief Scientist @pseudorutilaria discusses the far-reaching impacts of Antarctic ice melt, and the urgent need for climate action, in Paddy Gower’s new doco, screening in NZ on Three/Three Now today👉 https://t.co/HTufv5ggkB

It's #ShowYourStripes Day. Here are ours.

As our planet warms, so does the ocean, sending warmer waters to Antarctica & under the ice shelves.
Ice shelves act as vital dams, holding back the ice sheets flowing to the sea & slowing sea level rise.

@SWAIS2C researchers have had their first glimpse of the sediment cores obtained from the seafloor deep under the Ross Ice Shelf last summer, an important step in the hunt for clues about the past behaviour of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet 👉https://t.co/v4ahSy8nIh

[Imperial Earth Science & Engineering @ESEImperial]

🔍❄️The sediment cores retrieved from beneath the Ross Ice Shelf by the @SWAIS2C team were opened and examined at a recent workshop.

Co-led by Prof @vandeflierdt, Head of ESE, the SWAIS2C team is delving into Antarctica's past to understand its future⤵️

Diatoms and diatoms and forams, oh my!

We look forward to the release of our first set of Education & Outreach products. Stay tuned…

Analysis of our 1st season's cores has begun!

SWAIS2C core workshop offers the first glimpse of sediment from below the Ross Ice Shelf.

Another global sea level update with satellite altimetry data now processed by @CNES (AVISO) through late April 2024 🌊

Note that this graph is produced by https://t.co/VyYfR0tswZ, which just updated its visualization style to better show the recent sea level acceleration.

Sunshine, the Hawk, is a very special mother. Against all odds, she raised chickens and more recently, a totally different hawk species! This Earth Day, what special ways will you help Mother Earth?

Trees, like the Madrone Tree, are homes to some very special creatures. This Earth Day, see what special trees you can see near your home!

Thank you @KidLitTV_NYC !!!

Happy #EarthDay2024!

It's vital that we act to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and limit Antarctic melting.

Some words from SWAIS2C Co-Chief Scientist Richard Levy @Pseudorutilaria:

🎨 Marlo Garnsworthy @MarloWordyBird

[SWAIS2C @SWAIS2C]

"We are not yet locked into this trajectory: we have the opportunity to prevent the loss of the WAIS by acting now and strongly reducing emissions globally. The future is in our hands..." says SWAIS2C Co-Chief Scientist @vandeflierdt

Excellent podcast by @VeronikaMeduna exploring our first season on the ice.

Give it a listen!

Check out these great @nzantarcticsoc events−offered live & virtually!

Fresh off the ice, SWAIS2C's @Pseudorutilaria, Darcy Mandeno, @frostylindaphd & Jane Chewings will share their experience this past season.

RVSP essential.

WE NEED TO LOWER GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS, NOT BUILD CURTAINS IN FRONT OF ICE SHELVES!
