The big deep
Article Abstract:
Excessive numbers of visitors may do environmental damage to Arizona's Grand Canyon and pressures on this national park forced the National Park Service to draw up a 15-year General Management Plan, approved in Aug 1995. This plan will guide the park's management until 2010. One of the first problems it will deal with is traffic congestion. Air pollution is one example of the problems which transgress the park's boundaries, while insufficient water resources is one concern inside the park. Environmental education is essential for survival, because with it comes concern.
