– I heard about Tarfala Research Station on social media. Science and facts are immensely important for continued work on sustainability and fossil free energy. I am grateful for people who are prepared to take on the hard work to gather vital data. I was impressed by the work carried out by Nina Kirchner and her colleagues, and I asked some of my colleagues if they wanted to contribute. The response was immediate – within two days the money was collected. As donors we can follow the work at Tarfala through their newsletter and we are very proud to have been able to make a contribution, says Serge Lachapelle who represents the donors.
Nina Kirchner and her colleagues have recently returned from the spring season at Tarfala where they have carried out the winter-spring mapping of a number of glaciers.
