Race to save the Antarctic base



This news article explains about Halley VI, a structure built on a floating ice shelf in the Weddell Sea, Antarctica. Scientifics has realized about ice is cracking round the caterpillar base. The way they are using to avoid lose the base is try to ski it to safety. It also mentions that this summer, tractors will tow modules of the base on the skis to be allowed to safe the base.

In my opinion I think that we have to draw some conclusions about this happening. Global warming is real and it’s going forwards really fast. The growing fissures around the base has appeared due the increase of the temperatures. We have to act against this phenome for safe our planet.

Halley VI (pictured) is now at risk from being cast adrift, but experts have hatched a polar plan to save it ¿ they intend to ski it to safety. The modules will be separated so that each can be dragged by a large tractor on skis
