Greenpeace said it was seeking hundreds of adult volunteers to pose in the nude on a Swiss glacier for publicity photos about global warming that will be shot by the American photographer Spencer Tunick, who is renowned for his photos of crowds of naked people. Greenpeace says the campaign is intended to draw attention to melting Alpine glaciers, which it says are a sign of man-made climate change.

Naked comes an editor I
New York Times (AP):
People in parts of a Vermont town known for nudity are being told to keep their clothes on. In a 3-to-2 vote, town officials in Brattleboro passed an emergency antinudity ordinance for main roads and near schools and places of worship. A gaggle of naked teenagers who hung around a downtown parking lot had prompted the Select Board several months ago to think that clothing-optional was not working. Officials decided then to let winter take care of the problem, and never voted. But, they decided they had seen enough when an elderly man strolled through downtown last week wearing nothing but a fanny pack. Next month, Brattleboro will hold a public hearing on whether the ordinance should become permanent.
