On March 29,
2008, the Will Steger Foundation launched its second Global Warming 101
Expedition, a 62-day, 1400-mile dogsled expedition across Ellesmere Island.
Explorer Will Steger selected six young adventurers to join him in an effort to
educate youth, inspire international cooperation and empower the next
generation of leaders in environmental advocacy.
The team
travelled in Canada's High Arctic, site of the last remaining ice shelves in
North America, to capture disintegrating ice caps, retreating glaciers and the
destruction of wildlife habitat.
