The wait is finally over! Join 5FM's Nick Hamman, on an adventure to the edge of the earth where together with world renowned explorer Riaan Manser and a group of passionate young South Africans we’ll be exploring one of the least visited parts of our planet – Antarctica.
Matrics In Antarctica is an initiative created to help inspire young South African's, matric students specifically, to think about sustainability and how they can make a difference to the environment in their communities.
You may be asking why a trip to Antarctica? The simple answer is that this great frozen landmass is vital to the ecosystem. Not only does it deflect some of the sun's rays from Earth, but it is also home to a number of species of sea life.
This epic adventure is set to entice students to think about how our daily actions affect the environment and what changes we can make locally to challenge the effects of global warming and climate change.
Follow the adventure on 5Drive Monday-Friday 3-6pm from 19-22 December and across 5FM’s social media platforms.
