Today children by the thousands are buying an ecology handbook by The EarthWorks Group, Fifty Things Kids Can Do to Save the Earth (Kansas City, Andrews and McMeel, 1990). Today’s children express concern about pollution, depletion of the ozone layer, animal rights, and human health; they’re a generation of eco-activists. One eight-year-old wrote a formal letter to her mother. "Dear Mom, Please stop running the water when you brush your teeth. Love, Leanne." Many parents who came of age in the sixties see their children as: crusaders for a better world. They like what they see, a generation committed to a better world. One parent put it this way, "If my kids pester me about saving the earth and the creatures on it, then I know I’ve done a good job bringing them up."

Red Adair was not a war hero or pioneer, and he wasn’t a notorious renegade from the Old West. So why does he have the honor of being played by John Wayne in a 1969 movie called The Hellfighters? Hellfighters refers to those men and women in Adair’s prime, mostly men who fight fires in oil wells. Unlike ordinary fires, oil fires are fed constantly by the fuel in the wells. And they’re powerful so powerful that only a select few companies can take on the task of extinguishing an oil-well fire. Adair is a combination cowboy daredevil technician whose successes in putting out fires in Texas and Oklahoma inspired the Wayne movie. One of the hellfighters who works for Adair describes his boss in these terms "Red is Red is Well, red is like no other man I’ve ever met. He looks just like a regular guy. But he can take on a well that’s pumping flames 5,000 pounds of pressure." Adair’s company was even called in to douse the oil fires left in Kuwait after the Gulf War: "We wanted the best, and Adair is better than the best italics mine," said one Kuwaiti official.
