The Changing Arctic Environment follows how national and international monitoring programmes revealed the extent of change in the far north. The author uses the figure of an Arctic Messenger, an imagined being that warns humanity about the damage it is causing.
Stone took part in many of the research and policy efforts he describes. The later chapters follow the diplomatic battles that turned research findings into binding agreements, with a focus on the part played by indigenous communities and international bodies. The book also covers persistent organic pollutants, heavy metal contamination and climate shifts in polar regions.
