For leader Toby Gregory, it is a chance to sound the alarm about the scourge of plastic waste in the world's oceans, a mission he took on after a 2023 Atlantic Ocean rowing trip during which he saw "a lot more plastic than I ever imagined". @AFP
@AFP Orlagh Dempsey is counting on her chilly Irish upbringing to see her through. "I had the first 20 years of my life in cold conditions," she said with a laugh. "I think it's just something that mentally and physically we'll adapt to when we get there..." @AFP
@AFP But with temperatures in Dubai these days topping 40 degrees Celsius, Arctic weather has become "very hard to replicate", Briton Andrew Savill said. "once at sea in the Arctic, the mercury is expected to hover between zero and 10 degrees Celsius" he added for @AFP.
