Working in the Polar Regions & COP26 with Ella Potts

For years we have been shown documentaries of life in the polar regions whilst likely forgetting, that someone has had to wrap up, prep a warm drink & head out to those freezing temperatures & show us the wildlife in the cold. This week I chat with marine biologist & researcher, Ella Potts.

From Ella's top tips of dealing with the cold to why she chose to work in such inhospitable environments, Ella tells us all about life of working in the polar regions. Inevitably, we also discuss the future of these environments & about COP26. Ella shares with us her hopes & a few fears for the future.
