“We are the first generation to feel the effect of climate change and the last generation who can do something about it.”
Barack Obama, Former US President
“Refreezing the Arctic, were it possible, would be a huge defence against the global catastrophes currently threatened by continued global warming”
Sir david attenborough
Why is preserving the Arctic ice cap so important?
Our planet is heating up fast. This rapid global warming is causing climate change. The bright, white Arctic ice cap on the other hand provides cooling and acts as a gigantic mirror, reflecting sunlight back into space. As the Arctic ice cap melts due to global warming, it exposes the dark ocean on which it floats. That dark ocean absorbs heat and acts as a poor mirror. This is a powerful feedback loop where more melting exposes more ocean which causes more melting… until all the ice is gone! And without Arctic ice cap, our planet will heat up even faster. The Arctic ice cap is vital to keep our planet cool.

OurCharity

The Refreeze the Arctic Foundation (RAF) is a not-for-profit charity with a single goal: fast track research into MCB. All the RAF donations are deployed to fund research programmes into MCB.

The Foundation is made up of a highly skilled team, bringing together top scientists, experienced leadership and a world-class advisory board to help refreeze the Arctic.

Our Objective

RAF’s mission is to fast-track research into MCB and make the results available to all.

Theoretical modelling and field experiments must first show that MCB can operate at low cost, without creating collateral damage. MCB can then be tested at a convenient location before being gradually implemented. MCB could be ready to Refreeze the Arctic and protect vulnerable areas (e.g., Great Barrier Reef) by the end of the decade.

How toget involved

Do you want to help make a difference to climate change? There are numerous ways to contribute to our cause. From financial support to small changes in your daily life, every effort helps. You have the power to create a lasting impact and help Refreeze the Arctic.

Start making steps today with the following options

Become aPartner...

By partnering with the RAF, you will join a MCB alliance tackling the most pressing problem of our times, climate catastrophe. Join two leading institutions, the Centre for Climate Repair at Cambridge (CCR) and the University of Technology Delft Climate Institute (TUDCI). There is no time to waste.

As a concernedindividual...

Every action counts in our fight against climate change. Whether we are scientists, politicians, or concerned individuals, our collective efforts are vital to help refreeze the arctic.

practicethe 3rs...

Small changes in your daily life can lead to significant environmental benefits. The personal 3Rs (Reduce, Remove & Recycle) offer varying levels of contributions to help save the Arctic one day at a time.

RAF’s mission is to prove that MCB can brigthen marine clouds enough to cool the planet and thereby refreeze the Arctic. We have no time to waste. Donate today.
