• Resumen

  • Sarchet features the Arctic iceberg that could be heading for a luxury drink near people. Floating off the coast of Newfoundland in Canada, this massive chunk of ice is big business. Iceberg hunters like Ed Kean and Philip Kennedy have found a way to cash in on this unlikely crop: catching the floating icebergs in large nets, hauling them aboard and selling them onto upmarket mineral-water and vodka manufacturers.
