This event took place on Wednesday, March 16, 2022 at 2:30 PM UTC.

Venue: Hilton Austin Downtown, Salon G At the ends of the world, the effects of climate change are taking their toll. Researchers brave the cold, ice, and isolation to do research not possible anywhere else. With the help of the U.S. National Science Foundation, researchers are racing against time to try and understand how the climate is changing and how nature is responding in one of the harshest environments on Earth — Antarctica. As climate change accelerates, it is more crucial than ever to investigate how the world is transforming. These researchers are here to show us the impacts of climate change on the environment and animals in Antarctica, all of which could have effects globally... even in your hometown.
