	Pantheist Association for Nature - Aldo Leopold (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-20)
		Leopold observed that ethics first dealt with relations between individuals, and later with relations between individuals and society, but no ethic yet dealt with humankind's relation to land and to the animals and plants living upon it.
		Leopold's land ethic rests on the premise that all elements of the biotic community are interdependent.
		Leopold's eloquent expression of the immanence of life in Nature rings a pantheistic chord, as does his belief in a "mystical supreme power" grounding life and being.

	EEK! - Aldo Leopold Father of Wildlife Management
		Aldo Leopold was born in Burlington, Iowa, on January 11, 1887, the son of a prominent manufacturer of finest-quality walnut desks and grandson of a German-educated landscape architect.
		Long before federal law prohibited hunting during the nesting season, Aldo’s father concluded that it was wrong to do so and ended his shooting in winter, a lesson in sportsmanship not lost on his son.
		Leopold believed that the future of American wildlife lay largely on private land, in the attitudes and decisions -wise or otherwise- of American farmers and landowners.

	Aldo Leopold on Bush
		Aldo was born near Burlington, Iowa on the magnificent bluffs of the Mississippi River, where he developed a deep appreciation for the natural world, which seemed so capable of managing itself without human intervention, the result of a vast interconnectedness which Leopold ultimately became adept at identifying.
		Leopold's deepest insights, and most ignored insights, however, dealt with cultural involvement in causing the loss and destruction of human life support systems, the fact that the western JudeoRoman mindset has traditionally had difficulty finding a land of "milk and honey" with which it was satisfied and content to call home.
		Leopold, of course, was speaking of a "higher" education, the type that ought come from universities and the type that can, if one thinks for oneself, come from actual experience in the natural world.

	Aldo Leopold
		Aldo Leopold was one of the early leaders of the American wilderness movement and is acknowledged by many as the father of wildlife conservation in this country.
		From early childhood, Leopold was captivated by the natural world and was intent on learning through patient observations and, eventually, field studies the intricacies of the natural systems he encountered.
		Leopold's public speeches and essays in the early 1920's on A Wilderness Policy, which advocated restraint in road building and the establishment of natural areas within national forests, inspired the first real public debate over the idea of wilderness.

	Aldo Leopold
		Leopold came to New Mexico as a young ranger in the Carson National Forest and worked his way up to forest inspector for the Albuquerque office when he heard about a vast stretch of untamed wild land in southwestern New Mexico.
		The Gila Wilderness and the Aldo Leopold Wilderness inside the Gila National Forest were the starting point for the modern wilderness conservation movement that has carved out pieces of quiet throughout the nation.
		It was at the urging of Aldo Leopold -- who during the span of a remarkable career was a writer, ranger, ecologist and head of the Albuquerque Chamber of Commerce -- that the U.S. Forest Service designated the Gila Wilderness as the world's first officially protected wilderness area.

	Introduction
		Academic environmental scientists are a primary source of credible information on the state of the planet and their knowledge is urgently required by policy makers and citizens to develop sustainable policies and practices.
		To address this challenge, the Aldo Leopold Leadership Program at the Woods Institute for the Environment provides communication and leadership training to academic environmental scientists and facilitates collaboration and networking among scientists and a broad range of decision-makers.
		Leopold Leadership Fellows are expected to use their training to enhance their professional activities both within the scientific community and outside of it, and to incorporate components of the training into their undergraduate and graduate courses and other outreach activities.
