We met up with Sacha Dench, aka ‘the human swan’ to find out all about her 3000+ mile aerial circumnavigation of Britain using a 100% electric paramotor.
The battery allows Sacha to fly for around 30 minutes at a time and between flights Sacha talks to people around the UK about their views on climate change and the actions we can all take to help.
This second World Record attempt hopes to inspire people to take action against climate change and a compilation of the stories discovered will be presented at COP26 in Glasgow in November.
Find out more about Sacha’s challenge.
