We encourage participation in our expeditions by naturalists and scientists engaged in such research, offering a platform from which they can pursue their work as well as a forum where they can voice their understanding of these fragile ecosystems. Preservation of the Arctic and Antarctic habitats and the Polar Ice Cap are environmental imperatives and the responsibility of all, including tourism operators and their guests.
