The Atlantic Highlands Shade Tree Commission is hosting a screening of “Green Fire: Aldo Leopold and a Land Ethic for Our Time” at the Library, Thursday, April 9 at 7:00 PM.
The special documentary hosted by the Shade Tree Commission honors April as Earth Month.
The impact of Leopold’s work has been felt around the globe! The work that he did at his Wisconsin farm, along with his writing of “A Sand County Almanac,” contributed in developing what PBS called his “revolutionary ‘land ethic'”… and challenges us to consider our own relationship with the land.”
The full length, high-definition documentary film highlights the legendary conservationist pointing out society’s ethical responsibility to care for the natural world.
No reservations are necessary and all are invited to attend.
