Is refreezing the Arctic the answer to reverse climate change?

This week has seen www.cruise.co.uk get fully behind World endangered species day. in Fact we have been busy donating £50 Per Booking on our Famous Bucket list cruises for the conservation of life for the worlds most endangered species.

It seems for the past 20 years or so we have all been waking up to the importance of climate change and Netflix documentaries Our Planet and Frozen Planet seems to have captivated the world at the right time.

Seeing the devastating impact on humanity laid bare in front of us and seeing the vast difficulties facing those beautiful animals makes for difficult viewing.

We work an an industry where it can often be ridiculed for causing harm to oceans and tourism impact does need to continue to preserve and protect environments from Carbon footprint with a great deal of modern ships working with conservation maritime law to be carbon zero.

MSC have worked incredibly hard on their marine reserve to conserve energy and be sympathetic to the local environment.

It’s hard to predict where we go re climate change we are recognize its a huge issue for our planet but how and where do we even start.

This week I read a fantastic article in The Express that discussed Scientists planning to re freeze the Arctic. This is a whole new concept and something that could only be possible as we have emerging technology.

Some of the worlds biggest start up companies are in this very sector and the involvement of

“sucking harmful excess carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere, and “greening” the oceans are among the ideas being considered by a new team of Cambridge University scientists”.

This is absolutely fascinating and Begs the question can this modern use of technology and science actually reverse some of the damage caused by nature over the past few thousand years.

According to the Center for Climate Repair is part of the university’s Carbon Neutral Futures Initiative, spearheaded by Dr Emily Shuckburgh. The project is being co-ordinated by Professor Sir David King, the former UK chief scientific adviser and special representative for climate change, who explained time “is no longer on our side”. He added: “What we continue to do, what we do that is new, and what we plan to do over the next 10 to 12 years will determine the future of humanity for the next 10,000.”
