On an expedition to the Great White Continent, host Michael Hernandez visits the British research station at Port Lockroy, now operated by the UK Antarctic Heritage Trust, which the busiest tourist attraction on the continent, visited by over 18,000 people each year.
Michael talks with Base Leader Lucy Bruzzone, who led an all-female staff this season, about what we can learn from the past and how it can help us make good decisions about our relationship to the natural world moving forward.
