Abstract

There's no question about it: parks and protected areas are the absolute cornerstone of our efforts to protect nature. In the long term, we can't save wildlife and ecosystems without them. But people want to use parks too, and in rapidly growing numbers. Around the world, parks are destinations for recreational activities like hiking, bird-watching and camping, as well as noisier affairs such as mountain-biking, snowmobiling and four-wheel-driving. Where do we draw the line?
