Public Trust is a new, not yet released, Patagonia film, directed by David Garrett Byars. it argues—or, at least, bets—that the vast majority of Americans favor the long-term ecological health of our parks and monuments over short-term resource extraction
- Public Trust is a new, not yet released, Patagonia film, directed by David Garrett Byars and executive produced by Robert Redford and Patagonia founder, Yvon Chouinard. The film delves into the polarized environmental politics in Washington, D.C., and at state capitols throughout the country, but contends that we’re not as polarized on the subject of public lands as politicians and corporations would have us believe. Instead, it argues—or, at least, bets—that the vast majority of Americans favor the long-term ecological health of our parks and monuments over short-term resource extraction. Public Trust makes a strong case that instead of trying to protect our public lands, politicians and profit-seeking corporations are pursuing their own interests to shape public-land policy. This film follows the people who are fighting back to protect our 640 million acres of public lands so future generations can share the American experience and heritage that they provide. Full review at Outside Magazine. This film will have a Q&A with director David Byars.
