Last week, we had the very exciting opportunity to sit down with an all-female crew that, like eXXpedition, are about to embark to one of the remotest, most challenging environments on the planet.
-
We caught up with analogue astronaut crew, WoMars (@WoMars_crew) for a zoom call to chat about the similarities and differences between space and sea voyages - and the power of an all female crew!
-
In the first two weeks of February 2021, the WoMars all-female crew of 6 scientists, engineers and geologists will begin a 14-day mission under Mars-like conditions.

“At the start of the voyage, we were noticing a little bit more plastic each day, it was building up slowly. Then one day, overnight, there was a noticeable difference. We saw bigger pieces like trays and buoys. It was a scary shift. I remember that part very clearly. And then it was such a slap in the face when we took out the first sample and found it to be full of microplastics. That was hard to see with my own eyes.”⁠

“Once industry is able to prove that the solutions out there exist, then governments will actually have something to legislate. I think there is still a lot of progress that needs to be made to get the legislation that is needed.”⁠

It’s easy to think that you have to be a marine

It’s easy to think that you have to be a marine biologist to help protect the ocean. But the truth is, we all have a part to play.
-
At eXXpedition, we encourage people to find their superpower, and harness it to create real change. Whether you’re a scientist, a painter, a woman in business or a doctor, we each have our own role when it comes to protecting the ocean.

It is so exciting to see this message delivered in a new book: “Advice from the Ocean: Unexpected Paths into Marine Conservation” (@advicefromtheocean) which features contributions from not only our co-founder @missemilypenn, but also three of our amazing guest crew, Geospatial Technologist, Marena Brinkhurst (@marena_b), Sea Shepherd, Surf and Yoga Environmentalist, Natalie Fox (@yogarama_uk) and Creative Consultant, Juliana Corrales (@jcs87), who have offered their unique insights into a multidisciplinary approach to marine conservation.

Is it too late to stop climate change? “8-in-10

Is it too late to stop climate change?

“8-in-10 people see climate change as a major threat to their country. At the same time an overwhelming majority cannot imagine giving up frequent flying, SUV driving and meat eating. How does that fit together? Is personal accountability the path to climate action? Or do we need to look to the corporations and governments to accelerate change and influence personal behavior? Who is in the driving seat for climate action?”

Tomorrow at 9am (ET), our co-founder @missemilypenn will be speaking alongside other women taking action against climate change in a panel discussion hosted by @SAPsports.

A year on from encountering the North Pacific gyre - a plastic accumulation zone - with eXXpedition and realising the scale of plastic pollution, designer, storyteller and eXXpedition ambassador Siri is back on land, using her skills to create waves of change.⁠
-⁠
“I’m a designer – I’ve worked a lot with branding, identities and as well as more strategic work, and I already knew before I set off the voyage that I wanted to put my skills into doing more of the things that are needed to create change, which includes changing habits through communication.”⁠
