How is global warming really changing our world?
Ed Viesturs is joining renowned Polar explorer and dogsledder Will Steger this spring to expose how global warming is destroying the delicate environment of the Anatartic.
Ed and Will, along with Sir Richard Branson and his son Sam, will travel 1,200 miles across Baffin Island, collecting stories, images and sound to post on globalwarming101.com.
The impact of global warming often goes unnoticed throughout the world. Through this expedition, the GlobalWarming 101 Foundation hopes to give those impacted in the Artic a voice by educating all of us about the damage that already exists.
You can also get daily updates from Ed at http://cisco.com/go/edviesturs.
Ed Viesturs is available for lectures and appearances at your next event. He has spoken to dozens of large Corporations and small groups. His themes include Team Work, Goal Setting, Perseverance, and inspirational entertainment in general.
His lectures are based on his experiences from 27 years of climbing and include a power point presentation with dramatic expedition photos.
