An Italian man is going to live on an iceberg in order to examine climate change.

Adventurer Alex Bellini is going to seek out the berg somewhere off the coast of Greenland, and spend a year living on the floating mass of ice.

He has already constructed a survival pod - complete with internet access - to stay there.

Mr Bellini says this is not about seeing whether the iceberg will melt, but rather to see where it will go.

Speaking to Newstalk Breakfast, he said he has nothing to prove - but that he just wants to be part of the discussion.
