not sure that you will get a comment from anyone of my generation ( the depression ride 30 ) about the emerald forest . but here go and anyway . i first become aware of the term ecology when i sign up for a master level college class of the same name in 1965. it be the first formalization of the study of ecology on the west coast . i take it simply because i need a natural science credit and all the other class be full . the class change my life and and my perspective . i devour rachel carson and and savor movie like dance with wolf and medicine man . i even join green peace at the age of 32 and suspect that i be probably the only republican in history that can make that claim . i would vote that emerald forest be the best of all popular eco message drama . it be my all time favorite . it be so well do in every area . script and acting and photography and and re enactment of tribal custom . at the same time and it deliver a powerful message that can only be dismiss by the most callous of personality . every time i see the movie i be fill with regret that i could never accomplish such a landmark cinematographic ecological statement . i be also fill with the emotion to go to brazil and blow away anyone with a chainsaw .
