Whole Earth, Spring 2001

“Place making has entered the mainstream and some mainstream constituencies have rebelled. Who cares if landscapes are all dandelions and lawn? Why do restorers get to create their version of nature? Place making and culture shaping entangle. A ten-year update on restoring nature to neighborhoods, watersheds, and intercontinental migration routes. A world of rich ambiguity. What’s possible? practical? sustainable?”
