Tweed, who worked among the Sierra Nevada's big peaks and big trees for more than thirty years, has now hiked more than 200 miles along California's John Muir Trail in a personal search for answers: How do we address the climate change we are seeing even now-in melting glaciers in Glacier National Park, changing rainy seasons on Mt Rainer, and more fire in the West's iconic parks. Should we intervene where we can to preserve biodiversity? Should the parks merely become ecosystem museums that exhibit famous landscapes and species? Asking how we can make these magnificent parks relevant for the next generation, Tweed, through his journey, ultimately shows why we must do just that. 606 $aNational parks and reserves$zUnited States$xManagement 606 $aNational parks and reserves$zUnited States$xForecasting 606 $aNational parks and reserves$zUnited States$xPhilosophy 606 $aNature conservation$zUnited States 606 $aEnvironmental protection$zUnited States 606 $aWilderness areas$zCalifornia 607 $aYosemite National Park (Calif.)$xEnvironmental condiitions 607 $aKings Canyon National Park (Calif.)$xEnvironmental condiitions 607 $aSequoia National Park (Calif.)$xEnvironmental condiitions 610 $aadventures. 610 $aamerica. 610 $aamerican landmarks. 610 $aamerican west. 610 $abiodiversity. 610 $acalifornia. 610 $aclimate change. 610 $adiscussion books. 610 $aecosystems. 610 $aendangered species. 610 $aenvironmentalists. 610 $aglacier national park. 610 $ahigh sierra. 610 $ahikers. 610 $ajohn muir trail. 610 $alandscapes. 610 $amelting glaciers. 610 $amt rainer. 610 $anational parks. 610 $anatural history. 610 $anatural world. 610 $aoutdoors. 610 $apark rangers. 610 $aparks policies. 610 $apolitical issues. 610 $apreservation. 610 $arelevance. 610 $ascientists. 610 $athought provoking. 610 $aunited states parks. 610 $awalking meditation. 615 0$aNational parks and reserves$xManagement. 615 0$aNational parks and reserves$xForecasting. 615 0$aNational parks and reserves$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aNature conservation 615 0$aEnvironmental protection 615 0$aWilderness areas 676 $a333.78/30973 700 $aTweed$b William C$01172417 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791485803321 996 $aUncertain path$93767911 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00981nam0 22002651i 450 001 UON00083454 005 20231205102437.132 100 $a20020107d1999 |0itac50 ba 101 $aeng 102 $aGB 105 $a|||| ||||| 200 1 $aCountry of my skull$fAntjie Krog 210 $aLondon$cVintage$d1999 215 $ax, 454 p.$d20 cm 606 $aSUDAFRICA $xElezioni politiche$x1994$3UONC023223$2FI 620 $aGB$dLondon$3UONL003044 676 $a968.064$cSTORIA DELLA REPUBBLICA SUDAFRICANA - 1989-$v21 700 1$aKROG$bAntjie$3UONV055007$0662506 712 $aVintage Books$3UONV246851$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20240220$gRICA 899 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$2UONSI 912 $aUON00083454 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI AA ST 334 $eSI AA 23620 5 334 996 $aCountry of my skull$91296009 997 $aUNIOR
