Cars in wilderness?
As I was reading through the wilderness headlines for the day, two strange links jumped out at me:
1. Aston Martin to tackle Alaskan Wilderness – http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1062480_aston-martin-rapide-to-tackle-alaskan-wilderness
2. Jeep Grand Cherokee Ready for Wilderness – http://www.autoevolution.com/news/xplore-jeep-grand-cherokee-ready-for-the-wilderness-36778.html
To say I find this amusing is an understatement. Not only do advertisers think that the rugged appeal of wilderness will sell cars, they obviously have no clue what wilderness actually is; what it actually means for an area to be wilderness.
This is one of the wilderness community's greatest challenges - ensuring that the public knows what wilderness is and why it's so important.
What are you doing today to raise awareness about wilderness?
