In this issue of Earth First! Ron Huber gives an update on the situation on the tree sitters attacked by a giant crane in Millennium Grove. Dave Foreman discusses the conservationists’ lack of vision, and Arne Naess describes various lifestyle characteristics of the deep ecology movement in Scandinavia. In this issue’s “Dear Ned Ludd,” Johnny Fireseed presents his most effective solution to save forested non-designated wilderness areas from timber management.
It is time to have vision, to dream of the world the way it should be, rather than the way it is handed us by Louisiana-Pacific, the Forest Service, Sen. Jim McClure, and Ronald Reagan.
