I don't think parks will be able to meet its dual mandates of access and protection. Mankind wants more land, and we have domolished so many of our parks and freeland to build towns and cities, that in a couple years we are going to get bored of what we have now, and start buiding on land that should be left for our wildlife and our plants. The protection of parks so far is doing an alright job, but I don't think they realise that people that go into these parks are destroying it.
I live close to Birds Hill Park, and I see alot of people going for picnics than leaving their garbage on the ground. Protecting the parks doesn't mean just making sure they dont get cut down, it also requires everyone to look out for their environment. Parks are one of the last freeland places in the world, and if they are covered with garbage it doesn't do much for the environment.
I feel that if everyone just picked up their garbage put it in the garbage bin, things would clear up alot, its all the litter we see everyday, and we don't do anything about it. In Wapusk, we need to make sure that all the animals, and green space stay like it is. We have to keep a good watch on the park and make sure nothing happens, we cant force anything upon anyone, but we can make sure it stays the same for a while.
