In the 1960s, Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring was published, and a new era of environmental protection began, beginning with the end of DDT and leading to numerous laws to protect the environment and human health.
Larry J. Schweiger became fascinated with conservation in his youth, inspired by the beauty of his home state of Pennsylvania and the conservationists who came before him. His journey is one of constant battles and collaborations with all levels of government officials, navigating the politics of non-profit organizations, and working with important figures such as former Vice President Al Gore, Robert Redford, Dr. Tom Lovejoy, Dr. Herbert Needleman, and many others.
Fighting for The Future of Nature is a fascinating look into one man’s journey to protect our world, the prices we pay when we let self-interest take the lead, and how we all must work together to demand change for the children of tomorrow.
