      Climate change. Rising sea levels. More violent storms. It’s all putting the statues of Easter Island in grave danger. http://nyti.ms/2FLuQWN pic.twitter.com/XtTnPGryV2

      Archaeologists fear the rising waves could erase clues to one of the greatest mysteries of Easter Island: What caused the collapse of the civilization that built the stone statues http://nyti.ms/2FLuQWN pic.twitter.com/Rx5VBVZIsV

      Can Easter Island’s cultural gems be moved to save them from the ravages of climate change? “Yes, but you lose their context, you lose their history when doing that.” http://nyti.ms/2FLuQWN pic.twitter.com/x1aAjg24ks

          Easter Islanders watch as climate change menaces their cultural heritage. But some say they’ll persevere, just as their ancestors survived ancient disasters. http://nyti.ms/2FLuQWN pic.twitter.com/0STp5xHoXH

          Not only would you lose their context, but (more importantly) the Rapa Nui wouldn’t forgive you for taking their heritage away from their land just like they haven’t forgiven/forgotten those who took their last moai to put it in a museum

          Why would anyone ever want to do that. Its like moving the pyramids out of Egypt.

          People, there are sealants for sandstone that can preserve statues from fast erosion without affecting historical features

          Uprooting the statues for saving them from climate change will render them meaningless as their association with their native land will be broken. They are storytellers of the island's past.

          If doing such a thing is bad, the British museum should be closed for good.

          Cultural gems? Somewhat crude carvings. Never get all the fuss over Stonehenge either. Why the hell people pay money to walk in a circle around it when you can see it from A303 is the biggest wonder!
