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.
