❄️ Antarctica is one of the last truly wild places on Earth and it matters more than most people realise. This frozen continent helps regulate our climate, drives our ocean currents, and stabilises weather patterns across the globe. What happens in Antarctica doesn’t stay in Antarctica, it impacts every one of us. But this fragile ecosystem is under increasing pressure. As ice melts and human activity pushes further south, one of the most important regions on the planet is being placed at risk.
