I researched the polar regions. The climate of this region: Average temperature during the summer: 20°F or -6.66°C) Average temperature during the winter - 30°F or -34.44°C Highest wind speeds in Antarctica : Over 200 miles or 322 km per hour Average precipitation in Antarctica is less than two inches or 5 cm

Canada has places that contain this kind of environment. These places are in the artic circle. The artic circle includes: Part of each: Yukon, Nunavut, Northwest Territories Some of the conditions that make it hard to survive include the following: Cold weather Extreme amounts of snow and ice Extreme altitudes Scarce amount of food
4
The obstacles of exploring this environment: Cold Environment Large amounts of snow and ice Dangerous animals Thin air altitude Why is it important to investigate this region? To know the changes of: Weather Climate Change Global Warming Melting Ice And Temperature

Polar Expedition: Who, When, and What John Franklin 1819 to 1822 and 1825 to 1827 He proved there was the Northwest Passage (a water route) Technology used to explore these areas: A rover called a Yeti It has a special skin, and electric motor and ATV tires. Snowshoes Snowmobiles

Ways to explore this region responsibly: Don’t litter Don’t leave anything but footprints or maybe cameras too Take the smallest amounts of things to be observed Try not to make global warming more of a problem Do not disturb the animals in that region
