The rally is not just a call to sustainable action in some of the landscapes most vulnerable to climate change, it also exercises it. Stage 1, April. Desert Ecosystem. Stage 2, May. Mangrove Ecosystem. Stage 3, August. Arctic Ecosystem. Stage 4, October and Stage 5, December. To be defined. 5 EPIC STAGES5 ECOSYSTEMS Reminds us of the importance of the desert in regulating climate and warns about the advance of desertification, with the loss of 24 billion tons of fertile soil each year. Extreme E collaborates with local and international experts who work toward those goals. Contamination and acidification of the oceans has decimated half of the coral reefs and a third of mangroves. They increase the risk of flooding and the scarcity of marine life. The rally organization contributes to the reforestation of 60 hectares of mangroves and to education and improving social cohesion in the communities. The teams are transported on the Santa Helena, a ship with hydroponic farms, and low-consumption baths and lighting, with recycled plastic furnishings. 63% of Greenland’s glaciers have receded and the Arctic, with nearly one thousand species of fish, birds and mammals, is warming at double the global average. The rally contributes to research along with Professor Peter Wadhams - one of the greatest experts in the world- on solutions to stop glacier melting. Initially it was scheduled in the forest ecosystem, and the glacial ecosystem. The former because the planet breathes through its tropical forests, but the fires and deforestation are choking them. And the latter because the increasing planetary temperatures diminish the glacial margins, the ice and permafrost areas. This not only harms flora and fauna, but also the communities who lose their water supply. However, the evolution of the pandemic has forced to change plans, at the closing edition of the magazine new locations are to be defined.
