Dear Friend,

Over the past year I was fortunate to travel back to the Arctic on two expeditions to witness the ongoing impact of global warming on this sensitive environment. In late March I set out from Resolute in the High Arctic with a team of 21-28 year olds from four countries along with 3 sleds and 30 dogs. Our main objective was to visit the threatened ice shelves 800 miles away on northern Ellesmere Island, an area I first visited in 1983. As you may know from following our progress on www.globalwarming101.com, we were unable to reach northern Ellesmere because we were slowed down by massive rubble of the Arctic Ocean that had disintegrated last summer from unusually warm temperatures. We did however make it to the remnants of the Ayles ice shelf that had broken off from its parent body in 2005.
