A Wilderness Conservation Perspective in Albuquerque tonight

According to
Duke City Fix:
Roderick Nash author of "Wilderness and the American Mind" argues that wilderness is a basic ingredient of American civilization and has profoundly affected the formation of a national character. Nash will be joined by David Foreman, conservationist, writer, environmental historian and founder of the Wildlands Project and the Rewilding Institure.
Join us to listen and converse with two extraordinary minds in conservation today. Free and open to everyone! An Aldo Leopold Centennial Celebration event.
