Greenpeace recently built a replica of Noah’s Ark on Mount Ararat in Eastern Turkey, in a creative effort to urge world leaders to take action on global warming. Because the best way to save the environment is to chop up hella trees for wood, am I right?

But really, the ark is not so big - (108x43x43 feet) – and in addition to being a vehicle (heh) for awareness, it will stay on the mountain as a safe, sturdy hut for mountaineers. The replica took 20 Turkish and German carpenters about four weeks to build. It rests on the same mountain where it is believed the original ark landed after the great flood.

Upon completion of the boat, 14 Greenpeace activists climbed 55,294 feet above sea level to the Ararat summit for a reveal ceremony, where they displayed a banner that read "G8: this is the point of no return. Save the climate now".

Greenpeace activist Hilal Atici insists that, “unless world leaders take urgent, decisive and far-reaching action, the next decades will see human misery on a scale not experienced in modern times.” Yikes. So who’s bunking with her on the ark? Not it!
