A productive discussion of a whole range of environmental issues with a man who, until he went to Washington, D.C., had spent all his adult life in our last frontier, Alaska. WH: "I think that resources have to be wisely used, without abuse.... And so in our country, which is quite a bit different from the standpoint of geological formations and geographical locations, we've seen literally millions upon millions of board feet of timber that are just rotting, for example. We've seen, on the other side, the exploitation of salmon. We've seen exploitation since the turn of the century. So, I say, conservation is really appreciation... You're saying that you think that there's an extreme side on preservation versus exploitation?" WFB: "Yeah." WH: "I think the pendulum had to swing that way. It's a natural thing in things that happen in America."
