When asked to summarize his organization's philosophy, Trust for Public Land President Martin J. Rosen quoted John Muir's visionary statement on growth and preservation: "Not blind opposition to progress, but opposition to blind progress." Since its inception in 1973, TPL has completed 317 park and open-space projects in 25 states, rescuing over 316,000 acres from just the sort of blind progress Muir opposed.
