Shigo, Mattheck, Attenborough, Mears and a host of others but most of all i have the most respect and admiration for all the tribes that live in the rainforests or outback or wherever they may be living off the land and having mother nature as their cradle, that for me is the perfect life and what i think of as freedom 100%. I would rather be one of them than anything else and we could learn a lot from them.

Unfortunately we never bother; just drive in with chainsaws and bulldozers and destroy and entire eco system and way of life in one fell swoop. Agree with your sentiments though.

Great thread, for me its deffo David Attenborough....check out this link on iplayer BBC iPlayer - Attenborough's Journey ...gives a new perspective on his character if you havent already seen it? others...Martin luther king...Douglas adams...check out his book last chance to see....Gerald durrell...mainly those who have had the courage to affect so much of mankind for the better..many without even knowing it?
