I have travelled further north than anyone my age has ever been before, to the High Arctic and polar pack ice. Being chased by polar bears, crashing a Russian icebreaker, being trapped in 2m thick Arctic ice, and making the mistake of swimming among icebergs in the freezing Arctic Ocean are just some of the experiences I use to explore the issues of climate change and it's effect on this fragile region. Using this stimulus, I specialise in showing people that their individual actions do make a difference, and encourage change at individual, local, and national levels.
We've heard that the ice-caps are melting – I’ve been there, done that, and even got the t-shirt!
Nathan is preparing to become the youngest person to ski solo to the North Pole.
