Famous Camel Carcass - Camelot - A Replica of 'Bear Grylls’

Camelot – A Replica of Bear Grylls’ Famous Camel Carcass



If you’re a fan of Discovery Channel, you know about Bear Grylls’ crazy adventures from “Man vs. Wild”, and particularly about the famous camel carcass he used to protect himself in the Sahara Desert.

In an original advertising move to promote the new season of “Man vs. Wild”, Discovery Channel placed a replica of the camel carcass in Sydney’s Wynyard Park and put it up for rent, on a popular website.

Passers-by had the chance to crawl inside the carcass, dubbed Camelot, to see how Bear felt during his survival test in Sahara, and also fill in a form telling Discovery why they would be the best tenant for this unusual property, for the chance to win a holiday voucher worth $2,500.





In this handout image provided by the Discovery Channel, a passer by inspects "Camelot", a replica camel carcass simulating that used by adventurer Bear Grylls to shelter in the Sahara desert during an episode of the Discovery Channel's "Man Vs Wild", in Wynyard Park on March 1, 2010 in Sydney, Australia. The stunt sees the Discovery Channel put the animal skin shell "residence" up for rent on an Australian rental website, complete with today's "Open House" inspections, to promote the channel's new season of "Man Vs Wild".

These Photos Saying Please "Stop Global Warming"

The carbon that our cars, airplanes and factories give off in our air works like the glass in a green house. They trap the heat which makes our earth hotter. That is global warning.

What causes global warming? It is the carbon dioxide that we put into the earth’s atmosphere. Whenever we use energy we spew out carbon dioxide into the air. Whenever we use oil, fuel and gas, we create carbon dioxide that mixes with the oxygen that we breathe.









So, how to stop global warming? The simple answer is to stop putting carbon dioxide into the air. When we ask, how? The answer is far from simple. Ideally, we can stop the build-up of carbon into the air by closing down the factories and not using all the vehicles that create the carbon. That is very difficult in reality. Millions of people will lose jobs and car industries and transportation sector will go bankrupt. There will be a collapse in the global economy and everyone will suffer.







What the governments of many countries are doing is not to completely close down the factories that belch out large amounts of carbon dioxide. They are passing laws that will force these factories to clean up the smoke that they are creating. They are also giving incentives for manufacturers to make more electronic and hybrid cars and the consumers to buy them.





Tree planting is also a way to stop global warming. Trees inhale the carbon dioxide and turn it into oxygen. Do you notice that the quality of air in cities with lots of trees isn’t as bad as those cities where there are no trees? That’s because trees reduce the carbon content of our air.







Probably the best answer to the question, “How to stop global warming” is a combination of government, communal and individual initiatives. The government cannot do it alone. Small communities cannot do it alone. An individual cannot do it alone. But if government, communities help each other out, there is a chance for our planet earth to become cooler and safer from natural calamities brought about by global warming.
