Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the critical issue of conservation in the United States at the beginning of the 20th century. The author, writing at a time when resources were still widely considered inexhaustible, argues that this perception is dangerously flawed. Examining the history of the conservation movement, the book delves into the impact of scientific discoveries on public awareness of resource scarcity. The author then presents a detailed analysis of various natural resources, including coal, iron, water, forests, and soil, highlighting the unsustainable practices of the time and outlining the consequences for future generations. The book's central argument revolves around the idea that the United States, as a nation, has a responsibility to steward its natural wealth for future generations. By documenting the alarming rate of resource depletion and waste, the author calls for a fundamental shift in thinking and a national commitment to conservation. This insightful and thought-provoking work underscores the enduring relevance of conservation to both human prosperity and the health of the planet.
