Aurora Expeditions is offering one final opportunity to join the world-first Antarctic Climate Expedition sailing in February 2023, led by renowned oceanographer, marine biologist, explorer and conservationist Dr. Sylvia Earle.
Registrations for the ‘by-invitation’ Climate Summit are required by October 28, 2022. Aurora Expedition welcomes expressions of interest from visionaries of all walks of life, from teenagers to titans of industry, with interests in the fields of science, art, education and economics to contribute to this momentous expedition.
In partnership with Dr Earle and Ocean Geographic, the expedition’s mission is to address the warming climate and loss of ice in the southern polar region. It will develop creative strategies to radically reduce carbon emissions. Each expedition member will help formulate 23 resolutions to inspire transformative changes for global net-zero emission by 2035.
Limited to 110 expedition passengers from around the world, will join conservationists, high-profile personalities and ocean luminaries to raise public and government awareness of the splendour and importance of the Antarctic.
“This will be a climate expedition like no other. One that can have a real impact on the future of our relationship with life on Earth,” says Dr. Earle.
The pivotal 12-day Antarctic Climate Expedition starts on February 13, 2023, with two nights and a full-day collaborative conference in Ushuaia, Argentina followed by a nine day voyage on board Aurora Expeditions’ latest ship, the Sylvia Earle, and ends with a post-voyage night in Punta Arenas, Chile.
“The outcomes and photographic and video footage from this game-changing expedition aim to encourage the way people see and understand the Antarctic,” says Aurora Expeditions CMO Hayley Peacock-Gower. “To encourage people to be a part of the solution, to help change the trajectory of our blue planet.”
“We invite you to be part of this far-reaching legacy that helps bring about a sustainable planet,” he adds. “This is a unique opportunity to discover the beauty and majesty of Antarctica, in the company of Dr. Earle and her special guests.”
“February 2023 will be a moment in time of a gathering of great minds, a brains trust, for commitments to resolve what it takes to move from where we are now to a better future,” says Dr. Earle.
“This can be your legacy; you can help change the current course from a catastrophic outcome to a healthy, habitable planet” she adds. “Please do this for the next generation, for the future of humanity.”
The Sylvia Earle is the ideal ‘base camp’ for adventures at the outer limits of human exploration. The ship has everything you need to maximise comfort and relaxation while making enriching discoveries. The ship also features a modern lecture lounge, a Citizen Science Centre, multiple observation areas, Zodiac launching platforms, mud room, gym, spa and wellness centre. Every stateroom features an ocean view and nearly all include balconies.
Named in honour of Dr. Earle, the new purpose-built ship is designed for discovery to the most remote and beautiful places on earth. Its revolutionary ULSTEIN X-BOW® also allows the ship to cross oceans more comfortably and efficiently.
Other outcomes will include a series of lectures, expedition white paper, a feature documentary, global photography exhibition and a book launching from April 2023.
