Introducing a Yearlong Celebration of National Parks

In our largest storytelling initiative to date, National Geographic is dedicating an entire year—in our print, digital, and online versions—to celebrating the wonders of parks around the world and exploring the challenges they face. One hundred years ago, National Geographic played a major role in persuading the U.S. government to create the National Park Service. Today parks are more critical than ever to the health and sustainability of our planet. They connect us with the natural world and inspire us all to protect it. Join us at http://www.nationalgeographic.com/power-of-parks/ as we explore the power of parks.
