WHY DO YOU WANT TO PARTICIPATE ON A STUDENTS ON ICE EXPIDITION?

   I want to join Students On Ice because I am once a curious little boy. I always surf the internet to answer the questions that pops out in my mind. One day, I read an article about Artic and how global warming affects the Artic. Then, I decided to go further and deeper about the Artic. It changed my life perspective. My point of view towards the world has simply changed in an instance.

   

   But I know, as a human we can find a solution to this problem because humans are researchers, inventors, innovators, engineers and architect. We can make the impossible become possible. We find every solution for every problem. For ages, we solve the biggest problems that ever pop in a man’s mind. Currently, global warming is the biggest issue the world is facing.

     

   I decided to give a shot on Students On Ice because I want to be a part of building a better future for our future generation. It always had been a long-life dream to repay what mankind has done bad to the world especially the Artic. I see Students On Ice as a golden opportunity to achieve what I always dreamed to achieve that is to build a better future for our future generation.

WHAT DOES THE ARTIC REPRESENTS TO YOU?

    In my honest opinion, Artic represents the word “greed”. When I first thought of Artic, it shows how greed mankind can be. We make the mother nature pay for our doings. Currently, nature could not afford to pay for our doings anymore. Humans hail money as their everything. Artic does symbolizes how humans greed affect the world currently.

    Artic also symbolizes the word “unity”. It is obvious to see people from all around the world unites to curb global warming. Worldwide federation such as World Wildlife Fund (WWF) is created and joined by countries all over the world. This issue is also been discussed by the United Nations (UN) for years. This shows how people from all around the world unite to solve the global warming issue especially in the Artic region.

   Lastly, Artic represents beauty. It shows how beautiful is god’s creation in a land of ice. There we can find beautiful areas with extraordinary creature to be seen. The natural phenomenon that happens there is also beautiful such as the Aurora Borealis. It shows how beautiful the world can be.
