 - Antarctica & The North Pole -

earth.gif (27503 bytes)  Many people maintain that the last true wilderness on Earth is Antarctica.  This inhospitable continent at the bottom of the world carries a draw that many find irresistible.  For some, the challenge is in exploring it, while others choose to spend long periods of time living there, studying all sorts of things that relate to the health of the globe at large.  As it turns out, Antarctica is actually a very good indicator of how we're caring for our planet and unfortunately it's not all good news.  
     One site that details some of the findings of the considerable research underway in Antarctica is the Nova Online - Warnings from the Ice site.  You should check this out!

     Antartica is also turning out to be a favorite topic for exploring the boundaries of the Internet.  Several different significant web sites have been created to detail Antartic adventures, or to involve people around the globe in the exploration and study of this wonderful place.  Some of the sites we've found along this line are older sites, but are still worth visiting. 

     We even dug a a couple of webcams that you can check out to see a live shot of what the weather in Antarctica is like right now.  There is one at Davis Station, Mawson Station, Casey Station and Macquarie Island.  So if you think the weather is not so great where you are, you might want to pop onto one of these sites and get a fresh perspective on things.
