Coca-Cola’s 2011-2012 Arctic Home campaign, which came in two phases after the white cans of regular
Coke confused the soda addicts, was too late to help a selection of survey respondents improve their polar knowledge. At best it would have only achieved the bare minimum when it comes to knowledge of Earth’s polar regions -it would have raised awareness and little else.
Raising awareness is good because it could lead to concern which then leads to action. But a research study conducted by the Carsey Institute of the University of New Hampshire (UNH) says even with much ado about the polar regions it has led to not much but political-driven opinions.

With the common exception being Santa’s place of residence, the geographic (versus magnetic) north and south poles are often thought to be relatively the same apart from their positioning at opposite ends from each other. Although both poles do feature severe, icy conditions with unwelcoming frozen ground, their specific locations and makeup give them properties that are very unique to one another. And the rising temperatures due to significant changes in climate (yes, some call it global warming, but that’s an entirely different topic/debate) have been producing some considerably different results for each pole.
