It's an adventure that focuses on a young man who has been pre-chosen to complete a mission that, if not complete, will have devastating effects on the planet's future survival.

Who Inspired Me...

There have been a number of environmental activists and organizations, over the years, that have influenced my work. Most notably, the renowned Primatologist, Dr. Jane Goodall. I met "Dr. Jane" at a conference, in 1984, and I have, since then, been volunteering for the Institute.
