Making Amends to the Myriad Creatures – Stephanie Mills

Stephanie Mills, author of Whatever Happened to Ecology?, provides a personal narrative of her journey into the bioregional movement, tells about current projects, describing the difficulties, pitfalls, and rewards in store for those who return a given area to its earlier biological diversity, stability, and beauty. She shows that protecting wilderness is not the only motive behind restoration: another is to regain a sense of belonging to and depending on one's local ecosystem.

Stephanie Mills delivered “Making Amends to the Myriad Creatures” on October 19, 1991.
