Today is a very special day, a day to celebrate People. I almost missed this celebration, but SpaceCollective user LED gave me a heads up. I launched a virtual balloon to show my participation. International Polar Day is a part of a bigger campaign lasting all of 2008, International Polar Year (IPY). IPY aims to focus many scientific efforts on polar regions to study the effects of climate change on Atmosphere, Ice, Land, Oceans, People, and Space.
Join us around September 24th in learning more about People and the Polar Regions. Using the sidebar on the left of these pages you can find many ways to get involved including having local and global discussions, tuning in to radio broadcast from Arctic Canada, and launching a virtual balloon.
