Description

These environmental heroes put themselves in harm's way building strong grassroots support in the face of intimidating adversaries. For the past twelve years, along with their partner Tom Dusenbery, they have produced the Emmy Award-winning series The New Environmentalists. Narrated by Robert Redford, this powerful collection of true-life stories illustrates how ordinary people can effect extraordinary change.
