Earth First! 10, no. 1

Abstract

In this issue of Earth First! the title of John Davis’ editorial “A View of the Vortex” has been changed to “Ramblings” due to criticisms towards viewing the EF! movement as a vortex. In addition, Peter Bralver introduces the concept of the trophic mountain, Cindy Hill Couture contributes a short story about how bears need vast areas to live, and Leslie Lyon discusses whether revolutions can begin with the young.

"The forces bent on indoctrinating today’s kids into tomorrow’s army of mindless consumers are achieving frightening success. Most kids I know are more interested in acquiring toys than in frolicking outdoors. When asked about their goals in life, most teenagers entering college answer that they want to earn lots of money."
