"Our duty to the whole, including
the unborn generations, bids us restrain an unprincipled present-day
minority from wasting the heritage of these unborn generations. The
movement for the conservation of wild life and the larger movement
for the conservation of all our natural resources are essentially
democratic in spirit, purpose, and method."
Our first Council Commissioner established over 150 national parks and more that 50 preserves during his presidency, resulting in the preservation of more than 230 million acres of "forever wild". From its founding in 1910, the Boy Scouts of America have used conservation to teach America's youth about responsibility, legacy, and leadership . The links on the right will connect to pages describing conservation and nature activities that units and individuals can incorporate into their program. For our natural resources, click each link: |
