ENVIRONMENTAL COMMITMENT
It is impossible to travel the world today and not be stuck by the
changes that are occurring, even in the most remote wilderness regions.
Wild places everywhere are coming under increasing threat, and rapidly
disappearing.
My belief is that protection of these wild lands, and the indigenous
cultures that inhabit them, will come only through a broader public
understanding and sensitivity. Rather than locking these remote areas
away, and trying to keep them secret, I feel we need to raise awareness
of the beauty that still remains on the planet. I hope that my
photographs, stories, and writings help bring these hidden gems alive for
others.
I also believe in using my business to help inspire solutions to the
growing environmental crisis. To that end I have joined One Percent For
The Planet - a group of small and large business that donate at least 1%
of their annual net revenues to environmental organizations worldwide. I
urge you to learn more about One Percent For The Planet, to patronize
business that are already members, and to consider joining yourself.
My personal donations go towards Wildsight; a superbly professional group
that works to protect biodiversity and encourage sustainability in the
Columbia and Southern Rocky Mountains surrounding my home.
