\nCarried up by 40 horses and assembled by a team of international volunteers, it’s a replica of Noah’s Ark<\/a> on the mountain where some say it came to rest. From the construction team’s weblog<\/a>: “Our aim is to remind the world leaders and public that there’s not much time left to mitigate a climate disaster with devastating consequences for all.” <\/p>\n This photo was taken on the 23rd. I’m told that the Ark is almost now almost finished.<\/p>\n Today, 14 activists also reached the summit, 5,137 metres above sea level, where they unfurled a banner reading, “G8: this is the point of no return. Save the climate now”. Beate Steffens, one of the summit team, said, “If these leaders don’t act now, we will very soon reach a point where climate change gets out of control”. \n<\/p>\n
