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.

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.

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.
