Douglas Tompkins: A Wild Legacy
22,534 views
Douglas Tompkins, conservationist and co-founder of North Face and Esprit, preserved millions of acres of beautiful land from human exploitation. This moving tribute to Tompkins shows us his inspiring legacy of conservation and his passion for the wild earth. His love of exploring the outdoors led him to become an advocate for the land. A successful businessman in early adulthood, he sold his share of North Face and used this money to purchase wild tracts of land throughout South America, preserving this land for generations to come.
