Gordon Petersen: Voice for the Castle River Wildland

October 1, 2015

Wild Lands Advocate article from October 2015 by Vivian Pharis, AWA Board Member.

Gordon Peterson

Gordon Petersen

Gord’s story is the archetype of environmentalist/conservation stories in Alberta. Years,even decades of hope, long effort, personal sacrifice, deep commitment to the scraps of natural systems that remain after 60 years of relentless resource extraction, clearcutting, urban and transportation sprawl, breaking the sod and cancerous OHV growth – those efforts always thwarted because of the general belief that we can grow and extract forever without consequence.

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. 

Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you, 

and the storms their energy,
 while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
