Fotos de su viaje...Imagine you can get to know our Hemisphere by bike, and that you simultaneously educate schoolkids about the effects of global warming. David Kroodsma's exceptional project is to travel from Palo Alto (California, US) to the very southern tip of the Americas. Right now, he just left Peru for Chile. You can find out more about his current position at his own website and maybe get inspired to take that bike ride...
A snip from his journal:
"DO YOU KNOW PEOPLE DOWN THE ROAD? Over the next few months I will be stopping in the following cities: Iquitos, Yurimaguas, Huaraz, Lima, Cusco, and La Paz, as well as potentially other locations. If you know of people along the way that would be interested in hosting a ride for climate presentation (or simply help with a place to stay), let me know.
I am currently taking a boat up the Amazon River from Manaus into Peru. From Peru, I will bike across the Andes, and then follow the mountain range south crossing Peru and Bolivia before crossing into Argentina and Chile, at which point I will send out another update."
Imaginen que pueden descubrir nuestro continente con su bicicleta, simultaneamente que educan a escolares sobre los efectos del calentamiento global. El proyecto excepcional de David Kroodsma es atravesar las Américas desde Palo Alto (California) hasta el sur del hemisferio. Hace poco cruzó la frontera y llegó a Chile. Pueden averiguar más en la página web, y quizás se inspiran a sacar su bicicleta...
