I reflected on how the earth was feeling – whether anger was there. I realised when I asked that it is the Earth that is resting peacefully within itself. It is us and our behaviour that brings interruption and busy-ness to that peace. By Antonia

The scenery up in the mountains was stunning but the question I want to ask myself is how can I make a difference? By Luke S

I thought how long and how much effort it would take to stop the Global Warming problems. By Chloe

I am so lucky. Make the most of this. How can I contribute more? By Dan

Why is it taking so long for the world to listen to the world? By Jo

How did man let this happen? By Jacob

We arrived at the cable car station after a long hike, we were all overjoyed to finally be going up. Some of us hate cable cars but we all made it safely. When right atop the Aiguille du Midi I finally realised the true beauty of the valley. We got out of the cable car and walked towards a small bridge leading to an ice balcony. When standing on the balcony, I realised over one million years of formation rolling in one hundred years of human invention. By Evan

Do dragons still live on the mountains? How bad can climate change be? The glaciers are retreating yet we can’t see as far as the eye can see. Can the mountains ever recover damage again? Will the mountains ever fall? We can’t give up on Climate Change and put our backs to the walls. Will nature disappear soon? Will our situation be so critical we will need to retreat? We need to forget the future and not let Climate Change make us beat? will our future be dark or bright? The main question is….will we be alright? By Aaron

At the top of the mountain, I was wondering how hard it was to breathe at the top of Mt Blanc. It was amazing how wonderful the view was. I hope I can climb a mountain like the Aiguille du Midi again. By Sam S

What have these rocks been through? Imagine if they had feelings. By Seraphina

Up the mountains, I drew a picture of a mountain, sun, snow and a waterfall. On my picture I wrote a couple of sentences. Brightly the sun shines down on the wonderful world. Colossal mountains towers over me like a giant making me feel small. Quickly the water gushes between the rocks trailing down the mountain. By Tabby

Don’t take our world for granted. By Cliff

This is not our world. This is mother nature. By Matthew

Up in the mountains, I drew a picture which was the amazing view of the wonderful mountains. My question was is nature going to get more beautiful? By Jasmine

Chamonix is peaceful like adove floating in the sky.

Happy environment, everyone plays,

Amazing sounds fill the air

Many happy memories that we remember at this time

On this day, we hiked the mountains saying we can do it

Never give up anybody, think of what you can do

Inside the ice glaciers we experience

Xzilarating mountains are surrounding us all. By Grace

Wow, we are finally here. I was so scared at first but now I am excited. It is a once-in-a-lifetime trip. At the moment, a cloud is rushing towards me, giving a shot of chilly wind. I feel welcome. By Jack

So peaceful. Will it still be peaceful in the future or not? By Sam T

I think I need to act fast about these mountains and the glaciers as they are slowly melting away. By Nancy

Laura
The sounds of rocks crashing down the mountains
The cold wind blowing across my face
The waterfalls flowing down the mountain and crashing on the rocks
My friends scribbling quickly like a leopard running

Amelia
Why does the glacier have to be melting it is beautiful
Only five years ago it was about a few 100ms higher.
I need to be better

Sophie
Wow. Words cannot capture how I am feeling.
Above the clouds is a kingdom of beauty. Sitting here, on a giant rock, peering at a view that will never escape the memory of my eyes
I am sitting at the top of a mountain.
My legs dangle off the rock, relieved for the freedom to rest.
A clump of junerosque mountains crowd and stare me in the face. Their summits impossible to see behind the mysterious and misty clouds. Periodically, the clouds run to stampede in front of different mountains revealing the rigid tips, towering proudly

Hannah
Impossible beauty – dying by the bare hands of human…

Phoebe T
At the moment I am sitting quietly on the top platform of the viewing point for Mt Blanc watching the clouds – that are surrounding us – pass by. I feel breathless quite literally because of the altitude. But as the sun beats down on us I realise how beautiful the scenery is. This is the best experience ever!

Ayden
Do the dragons still live here or have they migrated to a different glacier?
What have we done?
Will all the snow melt soon, ruining the beautiful sight?
We were standing tall and proud and now we have been overtaken

Laura
Why is the glacier melting?
Because humans have been warming up our planet and as you know if you heat ice it melts.
Why is it snowy on the mountain?
It’s snowy because when you get up high it’s very cold.
Is there a dragon in the mountains?
I don’t think there is.
If there were one do you think it would be angry?
I would say yes but different people say different things.
Man only wants what they don’t have and don’t respect what they do have until it’s too late

Samantha
Up in the mountains I rote a paragraph about the world isn’t ours

Jessica C
They’re going, they’re going
Soon they’ll be gone,
What can we do, what can be done?

We can save energy, turn off the lights,
Don’t waste water or use much oil, gas or coal
It can save the mountains and our world

They’re shrivelling away
Closer every day,
Our lives have cost our mountains

Will
I thought of one word up in the mountains…
…Astonished. Because it is astonishing how wonderful the scenery and mountains are. Also it is astonishing (in a bad way) how the glacier has melted so much recently since man has been here in the last 100 years.
