To live on the land without degrading it will be the topic of Dr. Eric Freyfogle’s talk. Freyfogle grew up in Decatur and attended public schools here. He is an emeritus professor of law at the University of Illinois where he has taught numerous courses relating to environmental law and policy, conservation and economic inequality. He is author of several authoritative books and has been active in the National Wildlife Federation, Prairie Rivers Network and the Land Conservation Foundation. We are fortunate to have Dr. Freyfogle back in our pulpit and for subsequent discussion. Vern Thistlethwaite will be our service leader.
