A sportsman and mountain guide, Thomas Ulrich, shows his support for the Save the Arctic campaign, by climbing a cliff of the Swiss mountain Schilthorn.

As international polling reveals that 74 percent of people worldwide support the creation of a protected sanctuary in the international waters surrounding the North Pole; climbers and mountaineers are ascending iconic mountain peaks and buildings all over the world, to demand that governments respond to the global outcry to make the creation of a protected Arctic Sanctuary a top priority

Ulrich is the only Swiss member of the Polar Guides Association and makes regular expeditions in the Arctic.

The study, commissioned by Greenpeace and carried out by Canadian company, RIWI was conducted across 30 countries on six continents. It demonstrates overwhelming public support for a formally protected area in the High Arctic for mammals and other marine life.
