Green Fire: Celebrating Conservation Hero Aldo Leopold
Join Desert Foothills Land Trust for an extraordinary evening, celebrating one of the most influential voices in conservation, Aldo Leopold! On Thursday, January 30th, we're screening "Green Fire," an award-winnning documentary exploring Leopold's life and legacy.
Considered by many to be the father of modern conservation and wildlife ecology, Aldo Leopold was a forester, philosopher, conservationist, educator, writer, and outdoor enthusiast. The documentary "Green Fire" captures Leopold's transformative journey, tracing his evolution from his formative years working in the National Forests of Arizona to his groundbreaking later career. Through stunning cinematography and thoughtful narrative, the film showcases how Leopold's revolutionary ideas continue to shape modern conservation efforts from urban centers to remote wilderness areas.
The evening will include a conversation between Buddy Huffaker of the Aldo Leopold Foundation and DFLT President and CEO Vicki Preston. Together, they'll connect Leopold's timeless wisdom to the vital work of protecting our beloved Sonoran Desert landscape.
Enjoy local eats from Speedy Burger, purchase a special 75th-anniversary edition of Leopold's "A Sand County Almanac," and connect with fellow nature enthusiasts who are passionate about protecting our precious landscapes. One night, one film, one remarkable conversation about our relationship with the natural world. Space is limited, reserve your seat today!
