Top Ten Reasons to Reinvest in America's National Park Heritage
Faded Glory
While national parks remain premier destinations for American families, a description of current conditions in our parks is unacceptable: dilapidated historic buildings; education cutbacks; traffic jams; marijuana farms operated by drug cartels; forests besieged by foreign insects; dirty restrooms; and crumbling artifacts. It is an unfortunate reality rooted in decades of inadequate investment by the American public, Congress, and the White House. But we can no longer neglect our responsibility to act. The national parks represent America’s heritage—our legacy to the future. Under current conditions, the future for the parks is not a bright one.
