S11 E5: Ice, Ice, Maybe?

About this episode

The episode features a racing challenge on Ellesmere Island where contestants solve glacier riddles while learning about climate change.

The race lands on Ellesmere Island in Canada's High Arctic – and it is cold . Like, three-pairs-of-socks cold. The challenge: each racer has three hours to solve a glacier riddle and decide if it's fact or fiction. Get it wrong and you're going home. Olivia's snowmobile breaks down in the middle of nowhere, Ryan somehow stumbles onto the right answer for the wrong reasons, and the clock is not waiting for anyone. With elimination on the line, Olivia has to figure out what's actually happening to the world's glaciers – and fast. Featuring glacier science from Environment and Climate Change Canada!
