| Description of Event: | Gil Reavill is an author, screenwriter and ghostwriter who has published numerous books, including his collaboration with polar traveler Robert Swan. Present-day fossil-fuel-based industrial civilization is burning the candle at both ends, burning the planet at both Poles. The effects of climate change show up disproportionately in the environmentally fragile Polar Regions. His talk will focus on the beauty and challenge of the Antarctic wilderness, as well as on the impact global warming has upon the most spectacular and remote landscape on earth. |
