PERSÉVÉRANCE – UN VOILIER POUR L’AVENIR DE LA PLANÈTE

Michel Lafon

 

 

An exceptional sailboat with an evocative name, Perseverance takes you on a journey of discovery of the sea planet.

Sailing the world’s oceans towards the polar regions since 2022, Persévérance is already considered the flagship of the new generation of eco-friendly oceanographic sailing vessels. Join Jean-Louis Étienne and the research teams aboard to observe ocean biodiversity, marine life, and the effects of climate change on the polar regions. Through a selection of striking photographs, discover the world’s most spectacular and inaccessible places and understand the ecological challenges at play in the polar regions, so sensitive to human activity. This unique schooner will soon take the scientific teams to the Polar POD oceanographic station, an extraordinary 100-meter-high vertical vessel that will drift with the circumpolar current around Antarctica, enabling in-depth study of the Southern Ocean, a major player in Earth’s climate and rich in still largely unknown biodiversity. Discover these innovative, forward-looking projects and polar expeditions led by Jean-Louis Étienne aboard Persévérance, sentinel of the oceans.
