Actually, this is not at all what \u201cghetto\u201d means. A ghetto was a place in most European cities during the 1800s where Jews were required to live. The key word here is <i>required<\/i>. Civil rights leaders during the 1960s saw the economic and social isolation of America\u2019s blacks as analogous to the legal isolation of Jews in Europe. While nobody can quarrel with the analogy, their use of the word \u201cghetto\u201d to describe predominantly black areas carries with it the implication that there is legal sanction to the isolation. Since this is not true, in effect they changed the meaning of the word \u201cghetto.\u201d Civil rights leaders wanted to implant an image in the mind of America that equated the historic treatment of European Jewry with the then-current treatment of African-Americans. <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font style=\"font-size: 12pt; \" face=\"'Times New Roman'\"><font style=\"font-size: 10pt; \" face=\"Verdana\">It obviously worked. Our language is dynamic \u2013 today, \u201cghetto\u201d means exactly what civil rights leaders wanted it to mean. Unfortunately, it is now impossible to convey to a listener the concept of the original ghetto without adding a lengthy explanation.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font style=\"font-size: 12pt; \" face=\"'Times New Roman'\"><font style=\"font-size: 10pt; \" face=\"Verdana\">Exactly the same thing is happening to the word \u201cenvironmentalist.\u201d It used to describe a person who was professionally concerned with the scientific study of the environment, just as a physicist studies physics and a historian studies history. But it is beginning to describe an extremist political activist whose interest focuses on the environment and whose solutions to perceived problems include significant government involvement and \u2013 often \u2013 radical measures.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font style=\"font-size: 12pt; \" face=\"'Times New Roman'\"><font style=\"font-size: 10pt; \" face=\"Verdana\">Fortunately, there still are classical environmentalists around. Admittedly, some of these also fit the \u201cnew\u201d definition, but many quietly pursue their research in the classic scientific mold. <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font style=\"font-size: 12pt; \" face=\"'Times New Roman'\"><font style=\"font-size: 10pt; \" face=\"Verdana\">No rational individual would disagree that healthy change is good for our society. One can even argue for the occasional use of force \u2013 after all, America\u2019s nationhood started with a revolution. When Earth First members drive steel spikes into trees, however, that cause loggers\u2019 power saws to shatter with potentially horrendous consequences for individual loggers, they go too far. Our modern society contains elegant mechanisms for bringing about needed change peacefully, without disruption, and without ecoterrorism.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font style=\"font-size: 12pt; \" face=\"'Times New Roman'\"><font style=\"font-size: 10pt; \" face=\"Verdana\">The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is an environmental organization that totally understands this principle. TNC works by identifying the species and ecosystems in greatest need of immediate protection and determining areas that should be set aside to ensure their survival; protecting habitats and natural systems through direct land acquisition, by gift or purchase; and managing for the long-term the protection of species and ecosystems on more than fourteen hundred TNC-owned preserves in all fifty states and encouraging compatible use of those sanctuaries by researchers, educators, and the public. <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font style=\"font-size: 12pt; \" face=\"'Times New Roman'\"><font style=\"font-size: 10pt; \" face=\"Verdana\">All TNC does is purchase land where there are endangered species or ecosystems \u2013 a simple, elegant solution to a complex problem!<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font style=\"font-size: 12pt; \" face=\"'Times New Roman'\"><font style=\"font-size: 10pt; \" face=\"Verdana\">TNC has over a million members, including many of the nation\u2019s top corporations. Surprise \u2013 corporations, and the men and women who run them, care, too! In the United States, since 1951 TNC has purchased or acquired millions of acres of old-growth timber, native grassland, endangered mountain plants, marshland, and white-oak savannah. It currently has a holding of 12,098,000 acres in the United States and 61,750,000 acres internationally.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font style=\"font-size: 12pt; \" face=\"'Times New Roman'\"><font style=\"font-size: 10pt; \" face=\"Verdana\">The Nature Conservancy is a mighty oak that holds up all kinds of sky.
