Lonnie Dupre has spent most of his adult life either traveling in the Arctic or planning his next trip there. Dupre's significant achievements include the world's first circumnavigation of Greenland and a summer expedition to the North Pole. 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." Dupre lives on the shores of Lake Superior in Grand Marais, Minnesota.
