Arctic Expedition for Climate Action

polar bear dive Three CA-CP staff just returned from an extraordinary trip to the Arctic, part of a high-level expedition of 100 leaders of government and business that included President Jimmy Carter, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, Meg Whitman (CEO of e-bay), and Larry Page, founder of Google. Participants on the 7-day trip to the Norwegian High Arctic issued a call for action on climate change: The Spirit of Endeavor Statement was the result of a nearly two-year collaboration between CA-CP, Lindblad Expeditions, National Geographic and the Aspen Institute. This partnership culminated in the Arctic Expedition for Climate Action to learn about the changes being wrought in this fragile wilderness and to discuss effective ways to craft a bi-partisan and broad-based response to the problem in the U.S. For more on the Arctic, visit www.arcticwarming.net.
