It would be John Muir's 178th birthday on April 21st!
John Muir -- explorer, scientist, and author -- studied ecosystems worldwide and expressed his views, helping establish the modern environmental movement. In 1892 he formed the Sierra Club "to make the mountains glad," and his vision led to the establishment of the National Park System.
"In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."
~ John Muir
