Lonnie Dupre has spent most of his adult life either traveling in the Arctic or planning his next trip there. His new book, Life on Ice: 25 Years of Arctic Exploration, is an important chronicle of Arctic life as well as climate change in the polar region. Life on Ice covers Dupre’s significant achievements, including the world’s first circumnavigation of Greenland and a summer expedition to the North Pole that reached 68 million people worldwide. During his travels over the Arctic’s disappearing ice, Dupre has participated in both scientific research and cultural exchanges, working with and gathering data for organizations such as the National Geographic Society, Greenpeace, the Explorers Club, the National Snow and Ice Data Center and the U.S. Department of Atmospheric Sciences. His findings have been called “the Holy Grail of global warming data.”
