  • Despairing of the Despoilers Essay.Indd
    Essay, lecture and swan song Despairing of the Despoilers, but Having a Good Life Anyway How I learned what is wrong with the world and how it could be fi xed But why it won’t be and how one deals with that Ben Gadd 2014 Based on a talk Ben gave at the University of Alberta in 2007 Despoilage in the Rockies west of Yoho National Park. Photo by the author. Intro: Would you like to save the world? I have very much wanted to save the world. Regrettably, I have not been able to do so. There’s no shame in that. No one else has been able to save it, either. But at least I know what needs to be done. At root it’s a simple matter, and if we each did our part the world would, in fact, be saved. When I was 26 I took an essential step toward that goal. It was the single best thing I could have done to save the world, and at the time I had no idea that it was. You, too, may have already done your bit to save the world. By the end of my lecture you should be able to judge whether you have or not. “S K S’ , .” This famous line is from the work of Sir William Davenant, a 17th-century playwright and poet laureate of England.* In my life I have certainly learned the truth in Sir William’s words. The inverse—that not knowing is safer than knowing—may also be true at times, but I hope to persuade you that in the 21st century, ignorance is anything but safe.
