The Glacier You May Never See | Travel Documentary - Franz Josef, NZ

Franz Josef is the glacier you may never see. In this video and episode of the travel documentary series I explain the special circumstances surrounding the Franz Josef Glacier (and Fox Glacier) as-well as the nearby townships. The situation around the glacier far outweighs only environmental concerns. While retreating inexorably, the consequences of the melting glacier combined with fluctuating tourism activities, stretch and reaches into the economic and social dimensions as-well. A unique situation embodying the challenges of our time.
