From the timbered shores of the Pacific Northwest to the marble halls of Washingtion, DC, the choices about how we use our natural heritage are filled with controversy. Whether it is the protection of endangered species or meeting the needs of a growing public, the fate of the public lands is constantly challenged. Visionary foresters Gifford Pinchot and Aldo Leopold shaped the debate for a hundred years. Their journey from the "wise use" of resources to the idea of a "land ethic" has defined the evolution of the Forest Service. In a breathtaking high-definition documentary, The Greatest Good takes the audience on a journey as compelling as it is uniquely American.
