| Tread Softly |
| As we enjoy the outdoors we inevitably cause some damage. Let's try to keep that impact to a minimum. We're not party-poopers and we're not wagging fingers, but erosion and environmental degradation are not someone else's problems, they are ours. We can be part of the solution by thinking hard about where, when and how we do our thing. Let's enjoy and celebrate the outdoors but also consider the future, not merely exploit natural beauty and wild places. |
