Milkweed Editions. Softcover. Very Good. 5x0x8. Originally presented to Congress on March 28, 2001, this book brings together the latest word from key conservation leaders as well as firsthand accounts by Alaska residents on how they and neighboring wildlife would be affected should oil drilling proceed according to current plans. The book includes original pieces by Jimmy Carter, Wendell Berry, Barry Lopez, Bill McKibben, Scott Russell Sanders, Rick Bass, and Terry Tempest Williams. The contributors, who range "from global leaders to nomadic hunters," attest to the ecological diversity and spiritual sanctity of the 18 million-acre wilderness, home to caribou, bears, wolves, eagles, wolverines, foxes and ravens, and the 15 villages of the Gwich'in Indians. The most piercing entries range from a brief, plainspoken "Letter to the President" by conservationist Margaret Murie (whose efforts led to the formation of the refuge in 1960) to the hope of a Gwich'in woman, Faith Gemmill, that her children will take their sustenance from the caribou and "listen to traditional teachings in their own traditional language," as she has. Wildlife biologist Bill Sherwonit lyrically describes the habits of pregnant polar bears, while Bill McKibben warns that an "oil spill may not happen in [the Refuge], but it will definitely happen in the atmosphere" when any extracted oil is burned, and Barry Lopez eloquently suggests that we must reign in the adolescent impulses that fuel our consumer economy if we are to solve the dilemmas posed by our ravenous oil consumption., Milkweed Editions, 3<
