Wilderness Is Lyrics

“Is it because wilderness makes pretty picture postcards?
Because it protects watersheds for downstream use by
agriculture, industry, and homes? Because it’s a good
place to clean the cobwebs out of our heads after a long
week in the auto factory or over the video display
terminal? Because it preserves resource-extraction
opportunities for future generations of humans? Because
some unknown plant living in the welds may hold a cure for cancer?

No – the answer is, because wilderness is. Because it is
the real world, the flow of life, the process of
evolution, the repository of that three and a half
billion years of shared travel”
