2014:

Today’s environmental ethic expresses a society dedicated to sustainability and stewardship in its very existence.  Conservation of natural resources and energy requires innovation of lifestyle and culture.

 

1948:

“There is yet no ethic dealing with man’s relation to land and to the animals and plants which grow upon it…The land relation is still strictly economic, entailing privileges but not obligations.” – Aldo Leopold
