Goodnewspaper: The National Parks Edition

Happy July! Put on some sunscreen, refill your water bottle, and say hello to the first-ever National Parks Edition of The Goodnewspaper!

In the face of proposed staffing and funding cuts to national parks and public lands, one thing has become very clear: These beloved places have been due for a moment in the spotlight. And we, collectively, have an opportunity to return to their profound inception for guidance.

“An idea that is as uniquely American as the Declaration of Independence and just as radical,” the Ken Burns documentary “America’s Best Idea” calls national parks, “That the most special places in the nation should be preserved — not for royalty or the rich — but for everyone.”

Whether you’ve recently tuned into national park news, or you’ve been a lifelong visitor to these public lands, this newspaper will remind you that they belong to us and that we have a responsibility to protect them.

Here’s a taste of what you can expect in this issue:

🐾 Innovative AI breakthroughs using wolf howls to boost Yellowstone’s conservation efforts

🏔️ How outdoor brands, private donors, and everyday people are banding together to save public lands

🥾 A deep dive into the resistance and resilience of national park rangers

🌿 One brilliant way Indigenous communities are stewarding and reclaiming public lands through tourism

🌼  And so much more!

As you read the National Parks Edition, you will find yourself on a hopeful journey into the diverse and historic places that make the United States what it is, empowered by the decades of work that have contributed to their success, and ready to take action to protect them now. Lace up your boots!
