Arctic weather alert
For Arctic explorer and 2004 Rolex Laureate, Lonnie Dupre, global warming is not just a theory – it is a visible and immediate threat to the region that he loves passionately. In May 2005, he set out with co-explorer and friend Eric Larsen on an ambitious expedition to heighten global awareness of this menace.
"If only one person's mind was turned around about global warming, that's fine.”
The unseasonal conditions that prevented them from completing their Arctic expedition are for Lonnie Dupre an urgent warning.
