• This sounds awesome. Explorer and environmental advocate, Sebastian Copeland, just embarked on a 1,367 mile trip crossing Greenland via kite-ski from south to north over the next 40-50 days to help raise awareness of how global warming is affecting Greenland’s climate.  With the icecap melting below his feet, I hope he makes it.
