Under the Pole Expeditions

Description

Under the Pole Expeditions

For the past 15 years, Under The Pole expeditions have gone to the Geographic North Pole, spent two years in Greenland wintering in the ice and sailed through the Northwest Passage and to Svalbard. These expeditions stand out for the rarity of the images brought back, others for the value of the scientific work and technological innovation in an environment where humankind can only stay on borrowed time: the ocean. To succeed in exploring polar, temperate, and tropical environments—seldom visited because of their difficult access—requires unconventional resources.

Joining us will be Claire De Courcy, the awareness manager at Under The Pole expeditions. She’ll share some of their past explorations and what’s coming up for future explorations.
