The Greatest Good
With filmmaker Dave Steinke in-person
This extraordinary documentary celebrates the 100th anniversary of the
US Forest Service. Visionary foresters Gifford Pinchot and Aldo Leopold
shaped the debate over land stewardship for a hundred years. The journey
from the "wise use" of resources to the idea of a "land ethic" has
defined the evolution of the Forest Service. At the heart of this
evolution are the landscapes that have inspired us all. This
breathtaking documentary takes the audience on a journey as compelling
as it is uniquely American.Filmmaker Dave Steinke will be there in person for
an introduction and a Q&A. Sponsored by the Center of the American West.
