    I was lucky to grow up in Concord Massachusetts, learning to swim in Walden's water. I remember the developers plans being talked about and I was shocked that this was even a discussion. I don't know what would have happened without Mr Henley. Yes, you needed money to fight the developers but you needed a voice and a person who not only understood the moral injustice but had the celebrity clout to bring it out into the media. I hope Walden is forever protected, I can only hope. This world has lost touch with the simple act of being human.

      Family? In case you haven't noticed families are a thing of the past with every Tom Dick and Harriet shacking up with one another nowadays. BTW the planet is safe out it's been here billions of years if you think 200 years will make it explode or whatever nonsense you believe then you are either truly deluded or gullible.

    What a worthy cause Don Henley is fighting for. Here in the UK some local Councils are allowing our wonderful precious green sites to be built on or Quarried??!! Once we loose this land and everything natural on it, we have lost it for generations to come. WELL DONE DON HENLEY.

      Have you heard about his latest house? It's his fifth house and he cleared a forest for it that the clearing can be seen from space. That's before you take into account all his worldwide travelling on a private jet. Don't get me wrong he's a great singer/songwriter but he needs to drop the climate preaching shit.

    As an Eagles fanatic from the very start of their career, and seeing them perform together and as solo acts all over the world on many a occasions, I have to point out Don Henley's gross hipocrisy . His newest house in Dallas required the clearing of such a huge area of forestry land that it could be seen by the NASA space station. Why do rock stars think it's their duty to lecture the rest of us on political and environmental issues when their personal carbon footprints account for millions of journeys that the common person could never enjoy?
    Do us a favour Don, enjoy your deserved success and wealth, and thanks for a lifetime of timeless music, but shut up and play/sing and if you still feel the need to preach to the rest of us about using up nature's resources, start leading by example and spare us Al Gore playbook, because you're in no position to lecture anyone. Perhaps Don Felder was correct when he objected to The Eagles playing benefit concerts for leftist lunatics like Jerry Moonbeam Browne?

      Well said as they say when you're ahead stay ahead, actually I just made that up this minute. Don hasn't much time left, he needs to stop preaching this nonsense and let people remember him for his great song writing and singing and not for the climate change scam.

      @@cattlewranglerwalsh116 what he needs to do is recognize that God is the creator and has already given man the path to eternal life in a place unencumbered by evil and fallen man. That would be a good thing for Don.

    I think DH needs to lay off the cheeseburgers and fries. No seriously, one of the key ideas that HDT stated was to go to the woods to live simply and economically with the bare essentials, to strip life down to the bare minimal possessions to see "self" and surroundings unfettered by the excessive weight of so much materialism. Consumerism as a personal and societal economical model is imploding on itself in the vacuum of the spiritual wasteland in its wake here in America and Globally. DH is trying to get it without ever living it and of course he comes out utterly lost in his delivery.
    Simply put; Be careful of what you own because what possessions you own end up owning you!

      Excellent point. He can think it and not follow it.
