German chancellor Angela Merkel collects blue berries as she visits the diminishing Sermeq Kujalleq glacier near Ilulissat on Greenland's west coast Friday, Aug 17, 2007. Merkel said China and the United States must be part of a new deal replacing the Kyoto Protocol limiting greenhouse gases. Merkel and German Environment Minister Sigmar Gabriel arrived Thursday in Ilulissat, where the nearby Sermeq Kujalleq glacier, a U.N. heritage site, has thinned in recent years in what scientists say is one of the most glaring signs of global warming.
