HOW DOES SIR JHEDN NIXON SHOW STEWARDSHIP IN ANTARCTICA?

A SPEECH BY JOSH
 * The ice is know to be untouched by human hands which means that it shouldn't be poluted or littered and you won't get sick from much air polution.
 * Many people do scientific training before going to Antarctica so police are not needed on premises.
 * Its very isolated which means that you feel comfortable and it's easy to concentrate with NO distractions but the beautiful animals while your working.
 * When you go to Antarctica you feel so special and lucky knowing that you are in the small group of people that get to go there.



= =
 * No supermarkets or any stores that provide food or your daily needs which means you have to pack your own food, which can be hard because you cannot predict everything, you may get stuck in a blizzard and have to stay for 2 more weeks but won't have enough food.
 * Not many shelters as the only ones are the ones in the stations. You may be on a long walk looking for a good water sample and need a break but can only sit on ice.
 * No electricity or much service to call your family or maybe you have to do something important with technology but it is harder to get access to wireless internet.
 * Due to tourist attraction and SOME TYPES of mining which SOMETIMES crerates polution, damages are being caused such as diseases being passed on from animals to human which is causing species extinct and you will get worried knowing you could be catching a disease or passing one around.
 * Due to all this there lots of products such as spray/ aresols which contain CFC. This is a very strong chemical which damages the Ozone layer then it allows unwanted sunlight to come through and melt the icebergs.This not only destroys the air pollution it also destroys the environment and animal habitats.Increases pollution by oil spills or scrap or bottles.
