A day to recognize the ecological insight that humankind is a part of Nature

Today, 21st of April is John Muir Day, which provides us with a day to reflect on the ecological insight that humankind is a part of Nature, and that our well being – indeed our very survival – depends upon an ecologically sound natural environment. By taking some time to appreciate how far we have come in the environmental movement launched by Muir, we can be inspired as we tackle the range of environmental problems facing us today.

You can find out more about John Muir – who over 150 years after his birth and due to his work and vision, still inspires countless Americans to appreciate and protect the natural world – here. More specific information can be found here.
