Join us on Thursday, January 14th at 4PM ET for Harvard Alumni Assoc. Travel Talk by David A. Aguilar, “A Tale of Two Poles”
From the top to the bottom of the world, the poles present a landscape alien to most life on Earth. Host to unique ecosystems where the sun never rises during winter and never sets during summer, and night skies ripple with sinuous glowing bands of auroral light, human polar exploration has a rich past of both triumph and tragedy.
More importantly, the poles not only host life found nowhere else on the planet, they are also the best indicators of accelerating global climate change that is rapidly occurring on our home planet. Together we will explore these implications and more in "A Tale of Two Poles". Click here to register for this exciting “Zoom” talk!
