40 - Ethan Tapper - Aldo Leopold, Green Fire

The county forester and I talk living off the grid, regenerative logging, the trouble with post-clear-cut forests, the permanence of development, groundhogs (aka woodchucks, aka Prairie Grizzlies), the rights of the forest to exist, and we take a deep dive into Green Fire, the doc about conservationist Aldo Leopold. Plus I offer both an apology and a shout-out to my high school biology teacher, Art Ariens.
