Green Fire Screening
On Sunday March 18, 2012 at 2 PM the Whidbey Audubon Society, Whidbey Environmental Action Network and the Pacific Rim Institute for Environmental Stewardship will host the screening of a new film called "Green Fire", the first full-length, high definition documentary film ever made about legendary conservationist Aldo Leopold. The film explores Aldo Leopold's life in the early part of the twentieth century and the many ways his land ethic idea continues to be applied all over the world today.
Green Fire: Aldo Leopold and a Land Ethic for Our Time is a production of the Aldo Leopold Foundation, the US Forest Service, and the Center for Humans and Nature. The film shares highlights from Leopold's life and extraordinary career, explaining how he shaped conservation in the twentieth century and still inspires people today. Although probably best known as the author of the conservation classic A Sand County Almanac, Leopold is also renowned for his work as an educator, philosopher, forester, ecologist, and wilderness advocate.
The film will be shown one time only at the Pacific Rim Institute, 180 Parker RD south of Coupeville. It will be introduced and later discussed by his daughter, Estella Leopold, Professor emeritus, University of Washington.
