In June 2004 a team departed from Canada on what is undoubtedly the world’s most grueling race: To be the first to travel around the planet (land and ocean) entirely by human power. Three nations, Britain, the USA and Canada are attempting to be first in this quest.
The team is using zero-emissions travel to highlight issues with global warming and to inspire others to use non-motorized transportation.
Expedition Planet Earth is using non-motorized transportation to circumnavigate the earth. By travelling 42,000 km using only human power, the team hopes to promote awareness about global warming and demonstrate how effective human powered travel can be.
"If we can propel ourselves around the world. Will you propel yourself to work or school?"
