UAB explorer sounds alarm on Antarctica
In 20 Antarctic trips, UAB polar biologist James McClintock, Ph.D. has seen worrisome changes in the white continent. Atmospheric carbon dioxide is turning the sea acid and melting ice, threatening entire ecosystems. In his new book, Lost Antarctica, McClintock outlines the growing dangers, potential solutions, and the breathtaking beauty that brings him back. He also offers a personal account of his own love affair with polar exploration. In this recent interview, McClintock describes the most striking climate-related changes he has seen in Antarctica and reveals the five things he must have on any polar trip.
