The Antarctic - Current Issues and the response of the NZ Antarctic Society

This presentation provides a current overview of the Antarctic and highlights many of the key issues for the region, from oceanographic currents to climate change to tourism to pathogens. The discussion raises many questions about the plight of the Antarctic, the pressures on it, current trends and these critical issues. The presentation then looks at how the NZ Antarctic Society can remain relevant in this rapidly changing context, the recent changes to the organisation and how we are looking to respond.
