Issues Concerning our National Parks
I think the biggest issue facing our National Parks is climate change. The erosion and weather deterioration has greatly affected our land. The weather destroys the natural landscape that we have grown to love. Another problem facing our National Parks is the decreasing amount of interest shown by the younger generation. They are more interested in electronic devices and texting "cute boys". The interest shown is nature and the beauty of getting outside and enjoying mother nature is not as present nowadays. Back in the day, people didn't have the incentives to stay in the house, so they enjoyed the outdoors more. I think that people need to get off the couch and go for a hike.

I thought climate change and lack of interest were some of the biggest issues we face when it comes to problems with our National Park System. Good job! I liked your examples of the "cute boys".
ReplyDeleteOur generation has defiantly lost interest in the outdoors and I agree that new technology is a reason for this. I mean why leave the house to see a natural feature when you can just google it?
ReplyDeleteNature is pretty neat and the younger generation should get off they're lazy butts and realize this. There are so many activities to enjoy outdoors, you just have to put away the phone for 10 minutes.
ReplyDeletebut that is scary cause my friends won't know where i am.
