Arctic explorer Eric Larsen '93 chats with Leno

July 26, 2006

Last year Eric Larsen '93, along with Lonnie Dupre, attempted the first summer crossing of the Arctic Ocean. Unfortunately, the duo was unable to complete their journey due to unexpectedly premature ice melt. On Monday Jay Leno hosted the two on The Tonight Show, where they talked about global warming. Leno's site currently includes a link (featuring a photo of Larsen and Dupre) to a site that encourages taking action to "stop global warming."
