180 degrees south
If you haven't seen this trailer, please watch. In 1968 Yvon Chouinard {founder of Patagonia}and his friend Doug Tompkins set out on a 5,000 mile expedition from California to the deep Patagonia. A man by the name of Jeff Johnson found the footage from this adventure and in 2007 decided to follow in their footsteps along this 5,000 mile journey. Join him on this eye opening journey from the environmental problems to meeting people that are helping to save this beautiful land.
Patagonia's passion for the environment inspires me in many ways:
Tin Shed
Yvon's message about the Matilija Dam
Ambassadors like Majka Burhardt and
Yvon Chouinard's story
Let My People Go Surfing book
The Footprint Chronicles
Their blog

As Yvon Chouinard says, "to do good you actually have to do something"
