TMGT 1P91 Lecture : TREN Lecture - Guest Lecture on Antarctica
Document Summary
The reason why it is ecotourism very isolated. Won a ,000 trip to antarctica, on the trip started working, and then continued to work for them, and go on numerous ships. Plans or organizes crew, supplies, roles, and drives the explorer dingy boats. Auctions on the ships raise money to develop and make hooks that go deeper in the water so albatross are not effected. The fishers can then purchase them for of the price. The tourism ship allows scientists to come on their ship and set up experiments/ cameras etc. (for examples the salisbury plain time lapse penguins) Tourists and workers create a large carbon footprint to get to south or north pole. According to antarctic treaty, no one owns the antarctic, so there is not docks, peers, shops, hotels, attractions . Tourists range from young adults to retirees.
