During the campaign named Mission: Triglav Glacier to Beijing. Toli will travel to China over the entire continent in a hybrid vehicle, stopping along the way for discussions on environmental strategies. In Beijing during the Olympics, Toli will slowly melt thus raising awareness about melting alpine glaciers and global warming. (Photo by Luka Dakskobler / SOPA Images/Sipa USA)
