CTA 005 - Skiing To The South Pole, Environmentalism, And Climate Change Opportunities With Barney Swan


Listen Later

Barney Swan is on a mission to make the world a better place. He's not only an eco-advocate but also an adventurer - the perfect guest for the Call to Adventure Podcast.

In 2018, Barney became the first person to ski to the South Pole using renewable energy. Traversing 1000 kilometres over 65 days, he survived using NASA designed solar ice melters, lithium batteries, and biofuel made from waste. The incredible journey marked the launch of the ClimateForce challenge, a solutions-driven mission to clean up 360 million tons of CO2 before the year 2025.

He's full of enthusiasm and energy. Barney's can-do attitude is exactly what we need to inspire the massive change needed to fight climate change.

I loved talking with Barney and know you'll enjoy this one if you're also an eco-adventurer. Get listening.
