Striped Icebergs
Icebergs sometimes have stripes, formed by layers of ice deposited on different conditions. Blue stripes are created when a crevice in the ice sheet fills up with melted water and freezes so quickly that no bubbles form. Green stripes form when an iceberg falls into the sea and a layer of water rich in algae freezes onto the bottom. Brown, black and yellow lines are caused by sediment, picked up when the ice sheet grinds downhill towards the sea.

Anorexic people are stereotyped as self-obsessed brats, who only care about looks. Obese people are stereotyped as lazy, selfish and stupid people. People with depression are stereotyped as selfish people who aren’t really sad, just faking it. People with schizophrenia are stereotyped as dramatic people who want attention. People with bipolar disorder are stereotyped who just can’t make a choice. People with anxiety are stereotyped as pathetic cowards who are too scared to better themselves. And, people with ignorance are widely accepted and considered “normal”.
