Yosemite's fragile ecosystem is being threatened by outside threats: destruction of migratory birds' wintering habitats which leads to diminished songbird populations, ozone damage to trees, and the reduction of the numbers of species of frogs. As David Brower points out, the fate of Yosemite is tied to the fate of the earth.
Awards: Equinox Environmental Film Festival
