Trash on a Glacier 

My name is J.F. Plouffe - adventure guide, husband and father of two wonderful kids. I'm proud to live in the paradise of Squamish, BC, in Canada. On a recent expedition at over 2000 meters, I found a discarded plastic water bottle on a glacier.

I'd seen many of these floating in the ocean, but I couldn't believe my eyes... on a Glacier?! I started to think about how much plastic waste there is in the world. That's where, step by step, deep in the noise of my thoughts, the story of Little Spring began.

"For most of history, humans have had to fight nature to survive; in this century, we are beginning to realize that in order to survive, we will have to protect it." - Jacques-Yves Cousteau
