Polar explorer and environmentalist. Marc is the curator of the course and expedition leader.

Marc is one of the few explorers reaching both North and South Pole on foot. His love of the Arctic wilderness has led him to undergo real physical endurance on the ice all in the name of climate change research and nature conservation. His expeditions have a mission. In March 2005 he has set out on ski’s together with Doug Stoup and Petter Nyquist to deploy high-tech satellite beacons tracking the movement of sea ice, air temperature and wind patterns on the Arctic Ocean.

Under freezing conditions the team made thousands of readings of the snow and ice cover. Now he wants you to join in a perhaps not so extreme but important mission. He looks forward to introducing you to the polar region which so far is suffering the greatest impact of rising temperatures on this Planet.
