Providence Canyon

National Parks are one of the great gifts of nature. National Parks are often a designated area of wilderness kept preserve to protect wildlife and biodiversity in the society. This site attracts multiple people around the world leading to explore nature and understand the life around this park. The importance of the park brings many cultures together to experience the recreational activities the Olympic National Park provides. The Olympic National Park is one of the great national parks in the United States. This National Park is one of the top most visited parks in the United States. It continues to show its great features and reasons as a park, World Heritage site, and the many ecosystems it inhabits.

The Grand Canyon is one of the greatest natural creations our planet has to offer. Have you ever been mesmerized by the giant cliffs, massive ridges, or the wide array of beautiful colors? If you answered yes, this paper is just for you! After reading this, you will be well educated about the Grand Canyon.

I agree with the federal government's decision in not making Providence Canyon a national park. The reason I agree with not making Providence Canyon a national park is because people do not know how to pick up their trash when it misses the trash cans and that is an environmental problem, also the money to pay for it comes from our pockets. Also people are unaware of this and the disasters that they could cause when they drop their trash where ever they want or when they let their pets use the bathroom where ever they let them. The federal government did the right thing by not making the Providence Canyon a national park in my opinion.

Providence Canyon, is located in Georgia's southwest. The canyon was officially named a state park when the government did not want to name it a national park in 1971. There are a few reasons why Providence canyon should be named a national park. This canyon has many different types of sand and rocks with in it, which could be used for education in science. Trips could be planed by schools to take students and study the rocks that are their. Also by making it a national park tourism will be raised and the people could spend money in local businesses. Providence canyon was a dense forest before it was a canyon. Farmers in the early 1800s started growing cotton in that area, they cut all of the trees and plowed to plant seed. They planted with long straight lines, which started the events

People in the U.S. know little about the Copper Canyon. It's about 4 hours from El Paso, so a weekend trip to the canyon would be easy peasy. Due to drug violence in Chihuahua, the fear is higher than the draw of the canyons. The canyon draws a large Mexican crowd on the weekends, but few Americans. Until the drug violence goes away, the American crowds will remain small

Conservation: Yellowstone is extraordinarily large, with 290 waterfalls, 17 rivers and acreage spanning across portions of three states. According to Yellowstone Superintendent Dan Wenk, his park “is at the heart of the largest intact ecosystem in the temperate zone in the United States, if not the world” (interview). It’s called the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) and within its borders lay two national parks (Grand Teton and Yellowstone), four national wildlife refuges, and seven national forests. This important biological reserve is the largest protected area in the lower 48 states and provides critical habitat for some of the world’s most iconic wildlife. Unfortunately, many plant and animal species today face endangerment, mainly because their natural habitats are being destroyed. National parks work to conserve wildlife by safeguarding these habitats that provide a safe space for wildlife to breed and survive.

In terms of National Parks, one often thinks of the greats such as Yosemite, Yellowstone, or the sheer vast area of Alaskan parks such as Denali. There are many other National Parks with unique beauty, striking features, intricate geology, and historical significance that many forget about or brush aside. One of which is Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona. Petrified Forest is arguably the most well known of all areas that contain these fossilized woods and boasts a rare Arizona grassland environment, an abundance of prehistoric cultural artifacts, and around 290 plant and animal species. Geologically, Petrified Forest National Park stands out with stunning colors, formations, and variety.

First, in my opinion I believe that Yellowstone should be considered a national treasure because the park has a lot of history. Long before the park was even founded Native Americans have thrived off of the land of Yellowstone for hundreds of years. It was not until 1795 that the Yellowstone River was first put on the map and then after that many explorations are made to the modern day area of the park. John Colter made the first expedition in 1808 making himself the first white person to visit Yellowstone. After returning home and giving descriptions of the area people doubt Colter and do not believe him. This continues

I think the federal government should make Providence Canyon a national park because it is said to be the second biggest canyon in the world next to the Grand Canyon, it shows how farming in the old days could cause environmental changes, and it is something that shows what has happened to the earth over time.

Among the thirty eight National Parks and eight National Reserves, the Elk Island National Park holds a unique purpose and holds an effect to Canadian history and reserving the elk sp

The Carlsbad Caverns form one of the world's oldest cave systems, and according to National Park Service statistics, receive around 300,000 visitors per year. The caverns lie approximately 27 miles from the city of Carlsbad in the Guadalupe Mountains, New Mexico, beneath the Chihuahuan Desert. The rugged landscape of the Carlsbad Caverns National Park conceals 117 known caves, including vast underground chambers. I do agree with you the government should have ownership of national parks and the reason why I say this is because national parks have so much history, value and are very expensive to

According to a report by the National Parks Conservation Association, one challenge is “Colorado River management actions that do not incorporate adaptive strategies for protecting and restoring fish, river flows, riverine habitats, cultural sites, and archaeological resources along the river corridor” NPCA, 3). Other problems include sounds cape management, such as over flights that can disturb visitors, wildlife, and the 11 Native American tribes which live in the park (NPCA, 3). Greater and better relationships with these tribes are also wanted. Mining activities from the past and present, along with air pollution from nearby areas also pose threats to the health of the park. Due to environmental change, the canyon even faces threats from non-native animals intruding. According to Anne Minard of the High Country News, drought has recently brought bison into the park. They were originally taken into Arizona for an experiment to breed them with cattle, although that failed (Minard). “Biologists with the National Park Service say the huge animals (males can weigh up to 2,500 pounds) are wallowing in riparian areas and damaging cultural sites. They considered building a fence, but that would affect other wildlife, such as mule deer” (Minard). The NPCA also states that there are “front country and backcountry management and protection needs, particularly in regard to the challenges of park size, visitation patterns, and shortfalls in funding,

Yellowstone national park is in the united states. it was the very first national park to be established by congress on March 1st,1872 to help preserve wildlife. Yellowstone is a national treasure because it has a geyser that erupts more than other geysers it erupts very frequently but not as much as it used too.

“Parks and Protected Areas,” a section of chapter 12 (“Forests, Forest Management, and Protected Areas”) in Environment: The Science Behind the Stories, shows why parks and reserves have been created, the history of them, what they can do for the environment, and various other topics pertaining to parks and reserves. As a Community Recreation major minoring in Nature Tourism, parks and reserves are an essential part of my life, and provide spaces for hands on learning about policy, outdoor recreation, and the seven basic principles of Leave No Trace that outdoor enthusiasts abide by. Although the 36 state parks and 1 national park in Maine are amazing spaces for recreation students, and everyone in general, are amazingly beautiful spaces to learn and enjoy, having a new national park alongside one of the most famous mountains in New England could solve numerous problems in Northern Maine, and provide an additional space for recreational areas open to the public (StateParks.com, 2015).

In 1872, the first ever national park – Yellowstone (pictured to the right) – was established as a public good “for the benefit and enjoyment of the people.” Yellowstone’s founding sparked a worldwide movement to preserve natural spaces for the enjoyment and enrichment of the public.
