An environmental film, designed to create awareness, understanding, citizen involvement, and commitment to the best possible use of our land for the best future development of Vermont. It deals with the change taking place in Vermont, highlighting the massive land sale developments and the possible devastation. This is contrasted sharply with the potential of good land use against the destructive capacity of bad land use. Hopefully this educational film will create understanding and awareness and an atmosphere in which broad citizen participation will take place in the process of dealing with the change sweeping over Vermont. Vermont will continue to change, will continue to develop in the years ahead, but the challenge presented by "A Thousand Hills" is the challenge of shaping this development and channeling it for the best results for all of us. The film was produced as a joint venture of the Development Department and Vermont Educational Television.
