What does it take to protect six million acres of wild Adirondack Park? In this podcast episode, ADK Talks sits down with David Gibson, conservation leader and author of A Force for Nature: Paul Schaefer’s Adirondack Coalitions.
Gibson takes listeners deep into the remarkable story of Paul Schaefer, the man who rallied hunters, anglers, labor unions, conservationists, and everyday citizens into powerful coalitions that forever changed the fate of the Adirondacks, preserving its wilderness and beauty for generations to come.
Through his personal connection to Schaefer, his role as co-founder of Adirondack Wild: Friends of the Forest Preserve, and his ongoing commitment to the fight for wilderness today, Gibson provides a unique perspective on Schaefer’s legacy.
Gibson shows that Schaefer is not just a story of the past, but a source of inspiration and empowerment in the era of climate change, and an example of how ordinary citizens can still make a significant impact in the fight for conservation.
