Osservatorio Artico (Arctic Observatory) is an Italian platform dedicated to the study, analysis and dissemination of issues related to the Arctic and polar regions. It focuses on issues such as climate change, geopolitics, economy and exploration in the Arctic.

This past February 25, Ramón Larramendi attended the Festival Italia Chiama Artico  at the Auditorium Biagi of the Sala Borsa, in Bologna, where the Osservatorio prepared a round table in which ambassadors, scientists and explorers like Ramón spoke about the importance of the Arctic, the impact of climate change and the opportunities for growth and development derived from the rapid changes in the Arctic Circle.

Larramendi had the opportunity to explain the great potential of the Windsled and the possibilities for cooperation with the Italian scientists.

The Windsled, the only zero-emission polar vehicle, in its latest version consists of 5 modules and has a load capacity of 3,000 kg. This allows the team members to perform several tasks at the same time and proves the maximum efficiency of this scientific platform.
