WHITE DESERT FOUNDATION

The White Desert Foundation is committed to supporting pioneering science to combat Climate Change. We do so by utilising White Desert's extensive infrastructure to offer logistical support to scientists studying climate change in Antarctica. We also invest in cutting-edge Blue Carbon (habitat restoration) projects in South Africa (our gateway to Antarctica).
