my boundaries and hopefully would encourage other people to push theirs and the reason i chose antarcticae. i really didn't know where to start and then i had my expedition manager who is a polar explorer, i learned a lot from him and i took one step at a time really, training in norway, training in queensland and iceland before and basically this is phase one of two as i want to do a crossing of antarctica. —— in queensland and iceland. i'm not actually from the polar world. everyone from this community has been super helpful and it's a really humbling community but people outside of it were alike, what do you know about it? and i said not much at the moment. these are people, yeah, ithink much at the moment. these are people, yeah, i think i would not necessarily have people expect that and that in itself is quite powerful and that in itself is quite powerful and there were some really difficult parts but when it is so, so when the answer, so—called, and there was a lot of... it's not flat, it's uphill and there's a lot of kind of moving around which can be a few metres high, so i fella

a scientific research station in antarctica is attempting to contain a covid outbreak.lisabeth polar station have caught the virus, although all the cases have been mild so far. new arrivals have been suspended until the outbreak eases. more than 20 people have been rescued after spending a night trapped in two cable cars in the us state of new mexico. the sandia peak tramway, in albuquerque, became stuck because of icy conditions. those on board — all employees of the company and a restaurant at the top — were supplied with food, water and emergency blankets. denmark has announced plans to end the use of fossil fuels on domestic flights by 2030. in a new year address prime minister mette frederiksen said flying must be made green but acknowledged the target would be hard to meet. denmark had already announced plans to reduce carbon emissions by 70% of 1990 levels by 2030. after almost three decades, football fans will now be allowed police are appealing for information after a man was shot in the stomach in liverpool last night. the incident happened in the car park of

now scientists are on a mission to a giant glass here in antarctica, trying to get a better idea of just how much it is being impacted by climate change. they will use under water robots to get beneath the flights glass. here it is actually referred to as the doomsday glassy because it would raise global sea levels by $65.00 centimeters if it were to collapse and melt. and recent research shows its hemorrhaging more and more ice these days. it is enormous. 192000 square kilometers on the west antarctic ice sheet. as a comparison, it's basically the size of great britain, his current hayward lead scientist on this project who explains exactly what they are now trying to uncover. it's an enormous gas yet, and if it did completely melts, then it would lead to $65.00 centimeters, a global sea level. so spread across the whole, the blow. but we don't think that's going to happen in your lifetime of mine. nonetheless, it's really important to understand when it might start to collapse and, and to get a better idea of the sea level rise that we might experience in our lifetime that, that makes

three brothers approaching the summit of mount vincent, the highest peak in antarctica.nt and we reached the summit today. wejust came back from south pole. we are the first brothers, i think, who did the south pole and vincent together. the trio marks the first nepali team to reach the south pole. it is part of their quest to conquer the explorers grand slam, a challenge that involves reaching the south and north poles, along with the highest mountain peaks in each of the seven continents. they hope to complete it within a year. translation: once we do this, there is nothing more adventurous left to do. it is like getting a masters degree. it is an ambitious task but these mountaineers are no strangers to a tall order. nima and dawa chnang hold the world record for being the first siblings to climb all 1a mountains above 8,000 metres. while tashi sherpa was the youngest person to climb everest without the use of supplementary oxygen. we are very good team here. five nepalese and one, our sister, from qatar. hand—in—hand with the records is recognition these siblings are

from here in antarctica, these birds that had use this exact area to lay their eggs for hundreds of years, had practically disappeared. from here after scientists and zoo keepers, even people who wanted them as pets captured them and took them as far away as japan. but a big goal they began returning. the science has shown the penguins have a genetic memory and that they always tried to return to breathe where they were born, just to see down the director of the penguin reserve. those 2 days scientists and university mug yanis are here investigating global climate change using the germs found on these penguins feathers of sensors. the reserve was created 10 years ago, which means the penguins could not be touched or moved or harmed. but scientists are warning that both the king and the emperor penguins could become extinct by the end of the century. and the reason is climate change. the increasingly warming water is even here. words freezing cold are driving fish further and further away, which means that both the emperor and chain tang winds when they go out to try to bring food back to

place where they tell us they're not afraid of death. scientists are selling to a giant, glassy and antarctica to get a better idea of how much it's being impacted by climate change. they'll use underwater robots to get beneath threats. garcia, it's referred to as the doomsday glass here because it would raise global sea levels by $65.00 centimeters. if it collapse and melted. research already shows that it's losing more and more ice. the enormous classier has an area of 192000 square kilometers. that's around the size of britain. karen hayward is a lead scientist on the projects and explains what they're trying to uncover. it's an enormous gas yet. and if it did completely melts, then it would lead to $65.00 centimeters, a global sea level. so spread across the globe. but we don't think that's going to happen in your lifetime of mine. nonetheless, it's really important to understand when it might start to collapse. and, and to get a better idea of the sea level rise, that we might experience in our lifetime that that makes a difference for the sea level defense is that we, we all depend on th
