Project Trumpmore could demonstrate climate change in a monumental way.

A Finnish organization called the Melting Ice Association 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.

The president may want his face carved on Mount Rushmore, but the environmental group says he's more deserving of the arctic protest and should 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 Melting Ice.

The project started when three men working in the creative field had enough of talking and decided to act.

Their starting point is 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 said.

He also said, "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."
