Green Fire: The Life and Legacy of Aldo Leopold

About the project:

The film Green Fire will introduce the viewer to famed conservationist and writer Aldo Leopold.  It will frame his life in the historical context of the American environmental movement, while tracing his legacy in conservation projects today.  The film will encourage audiences to think about Leopold’s land ethic idea and how it may apply to the environmental problems we face today. 

Leopold's legacy lives on today in the work of people and organizations across the nation and around the world. Additional film segments, teaching tools, and the Land Ethic Leaders program will build on the Green Fire movie, encouraging you to help your community discuss Leopold's thinking and the critical environmental issues of today, becoming a leader in your hometown.
