1. WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF NATIONAL PARKS

2. National parks generally have several objectives. The area should be managed using natural means and this management should contribute to the conservation of species in the area, the area’s ecology, migration routes, etc. The areas are often also used to inspire and educate the public, as well as contributing to the nation’s culture and recreation facilities, but visitor numbers should be closely managed to ensure that no damage is done to the area. If indigenous people are living in the area, these should be supported including by ensuring that they can access resources that they need. Objectives of National Parks

3. National parks also provide an opportunity for education about the importance of reducing climate change and how to change behaviour to do so, with many national parks now providing education programs demonstrating this to the public. National parks are also  a source of sustainable energy . This can include hydropower, wind energy, and solar energy. Many countries are now looking at ways to use national park areas as renewable energy sources in order to reduce the use of fossil fuels and their impact on the environment. They do not contribute to the environmental damage caused by humans. The importance of national parks in protecting the environment

4. National parks preserve nature’s great areas of wilderness and are often focused on the preservation of extraordinary areas or symbolic or important species. Preserving biodiversity is complicated by the fact that any change in an area’s ecosystem can have large and unpredictable effects.   This includes gnawing on stems that provide homes for insects and birds, creating wetlands that provide homes for many animals and which act as sponges, helping the flow of rivers, reducing the risk of flash floods, and retaining water during times of drought.

5. National parks have an impact on both the national economy and local economies. National parks are also important for the local rural communities that are near the national parks, known as “gateway communities”. Tourists visiting these areas spend money in hotels, shops, bars, restaurants, etc, and can be a vital source of jobs and income for the local community. National parks also contribute to the economy by supporting agriculture. In protected marine areas, fish are allowed to breed and grow, and they spill over into the fished areas. This helps to replenish the fished areas, allowing more fish to be caught and sold. The importance of National parks for the economy

6. National parks play an important role in promoting physical and mental health. Visitors to national parks spend their time outside and active, whether it be climbing, hiking, or just walking around. Walking outside can improve lung function, boosts the body’s production of collagen which will help you look younger, increase vitamin D levels which can protect against heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and prostate cancer, and can help reduce weight gain. The average distance travelled by foot when visiting a national park is between 1 and 20 miles, so they help to increase exercise levels.  Being outside in nature also has important impacts on mental health. Walking is effective in reducing anxiety and depression. Being in nature activates different areas of the brain, which have a calming effect on the mind and which reduces the heart rate and blood pressure. This also reduces symptoms of stress or anger.
