That's a photo of Zoe lying in the snow in Antarctica, taken by Geoff Green. It's posted on It's Getting Hot in Here, along with Zoe's account of her visit to Antarctica with a group called Students on Ice that teaches youth about sustainability.
I feel helpless when asked to describe Antarctica. It is the command centre of our world’s ecosystems, yet the slightest mention of the word ‘Antarctica’ renders your mind to a place seemingly farther and more foreign to humankind than the moon. Only through poetry could anyone even begin to do it justice. A summary of the experience is just the tip of the ice berg, but I have a feeling might be worth it.
It sure is.
