Antarctic Edge: 70° South

A unique inter-disciplinary educational project bridging art, science, and storytelling, Antarctic Edge: 70° South explores the race to understand climate change in the fastest winter-warming place on earth: the West Antarctic Peninsula. In the wake of devastating climate events like Superstorm Sandy and Hurricane Katrina, oceanographer Oscar Schofield teams up with a group of world-class researchers to study the fragile and rapidly declining Adelie Penguin: one of the greatest indicators of climate change and a harbinger of what is to come.
