Eric Bergman (1994-1995) is a naturalist for The Nature Conservancy (TNC) along Montana’s Rocky Mountain Front and coordinates the Pine Butte Education Program. His work also includes directing sustainable operations projects for TNC Montana programs. Currently, Eric is cooking up biodiesel for vehicles at the Pine Butte Guest Ranch, which already has a solar array, wind mill and large summer garden. Eric feels fortunate to work with an organization that is proactively facing the landscape conservation challenges of climate change and is also committed to making the appropriate connections between these challenges and human behavior. Eric also enjoys life at large among the human and wild communities along The Front.
Jason Wilmot (1988-1989) is the Executive Director of the Northern Rockies Conservation Cooperative, an organization dedicated to preserving species and ecosystems by providing reliable scientific and policy information, bringing people together to formulate and implement sound, effective conservation policies, and building support from an informed public through education and civic engagement.

"Through Wilderness and Civilization I have gained a vast knowledge of the natural world, communities, society, and many issues involving the environment. From Native Americans to gardening to environmental regulation, I now have a strong understanding of many processes facing the world today. The program planted seeds about how I'd like to live in the future."
~Andrew Henry, Denver, Colorado
