In 2010, I will take part in the Ice Warrior expedition to the Arctic Pole. This is otherwise known as the Northern Pole of Inaccessibility, and is defined as the furthest point from land in the centre of the Arctic Ocean. This is the last truly significant place on the surface of the planet yet to be reached by mankind.
The primary purpose of this expedition is to gather crucial data about the condition of the snow and ice covering the Arctic Ocean. This data will be used by NASA funded National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) scientists to obtain a firm understanding of the condition of the Ocean, and will help to deliver the reality of climate change to the world.
As a novice polar traveller, this will be a huge undertaking, requiring months of training and hard work.
One of the charities I will be supporting is the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust.
Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust's mission is to save species from extinction, and that is exactly what the organisation has been doing for fifty years. While many think halting the terrifying rate of extinction of animal species is a lost cause, Durrell, as a charitable organisation, has made it their mission to do everything possible to protect endangered animals across the planet. With their scientific expertise, dedication and our support more species can be protected from extinction.
