Aperture 120 - Fall 1990

Beyond Wilderness

Entering the final decade of the millennium, the terror of nuclear war has been joined by a new set of terrors—global warming, acid rain, dead oceans, mutations and cancers caused by radiation and toxic waste. “Beyond Wilderness” attempts to direct public debate away from questions of preserving an artificial wilderness and toward a new and enlightened stewardship of the earth.
