Mercedes-Benz has underscored its commitment to environmental sustainability by supporting a major expedition. Award-winning adventurer Mike Horn sets sail in October 2008 on the PANGAEA sail boat, with a mission to encourage conservation of the world’s natural resources. 144 young people will accompany Horn on his quest, with the boat travelling to the North and South Poles, as well as to five continents.
As a socially responsible company, Mercedes-Benz identifies strongly with the goal to protect the climate for future generations. We're delighted to be identified as the main sponsor of the four-year challenge. Both Mercedes-Benz and Mike Horn are known as pioneers in their fields, and will combine expertise to increase respect for the environment and to inspire environmental projects across the globe. |
