wilderness preservation
"Most men, it appears to me, do not care for Nature and would sell
their share in all her beauty, for as long as they may live, for a stated and
not very large sum. ...It is for this very reason that some do not care for these
things that we need to combine to protect all from the vandalism of the few."
Henry David Thoreau, from the essay Huckleberries, 1861
