ESD protection may not be the first thing you think about when you enter Antarctica. For most, the singular thought of cold permeates all consciousness and everything else follows thereafter.
Antarctica is the largest desert in the world as well as being the coldest, windiest, highest and driest continent on Earth – yet it holds 90% of all of the fresh water on the planet.
