Belfast’s own Jonathan Fulford’s voyage lasted four months. He sailed 4,000 nautical miles northward to the top of the Button Islands at the top of Labrador in a 28 ft. sailboat with a crew of four. The scenery included thousands of ice bergs, puffins, razorbills, fulmars and gannets — as well as polar bears whales, fijords, abandoned fishing villages and a hurricane. It was an adventure into the high latitudes, a first hand experience of a rapidly changing ecosystem, and an opportunity to learn how people are trying to adapt to the changes.
