Our international panel of speakers will discu ss the impact of fieldwork, the carbon and environmental footprint of data acquisition, and will explore new ways to minimise its impact. The presenta tions will be followed by an open discussion on practical approaches you ca n use in your projects.

Organised with early-career researchers in mi nd and aiming to support the development of professional skills, competence s and networks, this onlin e workshop is free of charge and open to anyone interested in the topic.

Programme:

16:00 – Int roduction and welcome
Danièle Rod, Swiss Polar I nstitute

16:10 – Environme ntal impact of polar science: overview and global perspective
Susana Hancock, President for APECS international, Arctic Bas ecamp
Susana is a multidisciplinary Arctic climate researcher who addresses the socio-geopolitical impacts of the climate crisis in the polar regions.

16:20 – Environmenta l impact of fieldwork: the view from a station manager in the Arctic
Morten Rasch, Arctic Station (Disco), University of Co penhagen, Greenland
Morten is the station manager and chairma n of INTERACT’s Station Managers’ Forum.

16:30 – Tackling environmental impact of fieldwork – a comparative pe rspective between Alps, Arctic and Antarctic
Mic hael Lehning, WSL, EPFL, Switzerland
Michael is professor of atmospheric physics and snow and atmosphere processes, focusing on the inte raction between the atmosphere and the cryosphere as well as renewable ener gy in the Alps.

16:40 – Panel discu ssion and Q&A

The discussion will engage with envir onmental and carbon footprints of fieldwork as well as exploring avenues fo r generating positive impact and cleaner approaches for data acquisition.

17:20 – Wrap-up and take-home messag es
