Waterman Center Event

Green Fire - Documentary on the Life of Aldo Leopold –

Saturday, February 11 at 7 PM at Waterman Center

The presentation, Green Fire – Aldo Leopold and a Land Ethic for our Time, will take place at Waterman Conservation Education Center, 403 Hilton Road, Apalachin, NY. The presentation is free and the community is invited to come and learn about the most important conservationist of the 20th century.
Aldo Leopold is considered the father of the national wilderness system, wildlife management and the science of ecological restoration. His classic book, A Sand County Almanac, still inspires us to see the natural world as a community to which we belong.
This documentary, Green Fire, explores Leopold’s personal journey of observation and understanding. It is the first feature documentary about Aldo Leopold’s life and contemporary legacy. It features commentary from conservation leaders including scientists, ranchers, scholars and three of Aldo Leopold’s children. Curt Meine, Leopold’s biographer, serves as the on-camera guide, making connections between Leopold’s ideas and their expression in the conservation movement today.
