Italian explorer and adventurer Alex Bellini this winter is going to go to the west coast of Greenland, to choose one of the icebergs on which he plans to live in for a whole year.
Alex wants to testify with his brave deed the last phase of his long life, during which he often enough had to deal with difficulties. For alex iceberg is a kind of personification of the fragility of our volatile peace, so its conquest is so significant for the brave researcher.
Since throughout the year the iceberg will have less and less less stability, Alex Bellini will have to look for compromises solutions and adapt to new situations.
However, unlike the desperate conquerors of ice floes, Alex will have significant advantage in the form of a special “survival capsule” created by engineers in Washington. Spherical “house” Bellini designed taking into account possible natural disasters, equipped waterproof doors, air fixtures, and also GPS equipment that will track it location.
Based on the biography of Alex, he is quite hardy adventurer. For example, in 2001, an Italian ran a marathon in Moroccan desert. In addition, he conquered the tundra on a sleigh Alaska, and in 2008 tried to swim alone the Pacific Ocean. However, as a result, he defeated only part of the way (65 nautical miles from planned 10,000). I wonder how they will affect his journey. consequences of global warming.
Many believe that Alex Bellini is trying with his actions get attention to get into the Guinness Book of Records. However Researcher’s goal is to focus people on the need to adapt to climate change, and also for research on human stamina in extreme conditions.
