[Vision2020] Consumer Reports: Global warming Unwelcome changes at national parks

[Saundra Lund]

For those interested in global warming, here's a link to a (free access)
Consumer's Report article that looks at the changes being seen in national
parks.

Whether you want to attribute the changes to global warming or some other
cause, the pictures & chart are quite disturbing.

Here's the opening paragraph:
" If you’re hoping to see glaciers at Montana’s Glacier National Park, don’t
wait too long, or you might miss them. “Climate change is happening,” the
National Park Service says in a new brochure for visitors at parks across
the U.S. Among the consequences the brochure cites: Stream temperatures and
sea levels are rising, coastal erosion is increasing, and changes in weather
patterns are leading to drought, heat waves, floods, and fires."
