From September 2005 to November 2006, the crew of the SEDNA IV participated in a major scientific and cinematographic mission. Altogether more than a dozen men and women signed up for one of the greatest expeditions of modern times. It was an extraordinary human adventure that took them to the farthest reaches of the planet to document the effects of climate change.

Altogether, this incredible voyage lasted 430 days. More than 750,000 people followed their adventures on the Web.

I’m on my school’s green committee. Again this year, we’re organising a neighbourhood street cleaning day. Some of us will pick up garbage and others will sort whatever can be recycled. We think of it as a treasure hunt and so it’s a big party!
