Some of the last great wildernesses on earth are found in the polar regions. Studying and monitoring environmental changes in the polar regions is vital and can give an insight to problems of global relevance.

WCMC has gathered much information on the Arctic to produce maps of protected areas and assess their status. Work includes a definitive digital map of Antarctica and an Arctic Bird Library (ABL).
