Our Sun kissed and solar produced embassador of the city's new eco-spirit most recently summited Africa's highest peak; Mount Kilimanjaro. For a complete trip log and details on it's next adventure 'Like' and follow us on Facebook.com/ethicallyengineered or email: info@ethicallyengineered.com.
Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest freestanding mountain as well as the 4th most prominent mountain in theworld, rising 5,882 metres or 19,298 ft from the base.
Our good friend and fan Erin L. from Chicago heeded the call for adventure and chose to take The Chicago Flag Bar along as a token of appreciation for her hosts while visiting Tanzania. While in country she visited historic animal preserves as well as trekked up this million year old dormant volcano with a Chicago Flag Bar in her bag.
As Erin climed and eventually summited the moutain's Uhuru Peak she bore witness to the melting ice and snow that have been dated to 11,700 years. Between 1912 and 2007 the ancient mountain has lost as much as 85% of it's ice. If global temperatures continue to rise the ice is estimated to be gone in 11 years.
Our goal is clear and we are renewed with dedication to our goals of carbon neutral production and delivery. Thank you Erin for sharing the eco-spirit of Chicago with the people of Tanzania.
