Cheltenham Science Festival: The Arctic’s Changing Landscape
- This event has passed.
The Arctic is hotting up: experts say that within decades the Arctic Ocean will be largely ice-free during summer months. This could open up new shipping lanes and untapped oil reserves and cause environmentalists to clash with economists. So what does the future hold? Helen Czerski tests the waters with British Antarctic Survey sea ice physicist Jeremy Wilkinson, Arctic plant ecologist Robert Baxter and geopolitics expert Klaus Dodds.
Tickets cost £8 and can be booked through the Cheltenham Science Festival website or by calling the box office on 01242 850270.
