Excerpt from 1990 Highlights of Natural Resources Management A we approach the end of the century, environmental trends and conditions signal a new era of challenges for managing the natural resources of the National Park System. Every day, more of the nation's natural habitat is lost, species diversity reduced, and air and water contaminated. Our national parks continue to take on increasingly important roles in the preservation of our natural heritage. The National Park System contains many of the least disturbed sites in the country. Parks that are least changed by man are outstanding places to study how natural processes work and how they change as we alter the larger ecosystem around them. Our parks also provide some of the best areas to foster natural diversity and some of the last areas to support certain threatened and endangered species. The national parks protect many of our nation's remaining natural treasures, saving them for the enjoyment of future generations. The challenge to the Park Service to preserve these resources is difficult, but extremely vital. Natural resources loomed large in the issues confronting the National Park Service in 1990. The Service faced problems such as visibility degradation at Grand Canyon and Shenandoah National Parks, a lawsuit on water quality degradation at Everglades, and con¿icts between Yellowstone bison management objectives and adjacent grazing interests.
