Dear Friend of the National Parks,

We can't wait for action on climate. The effects of climate change are
happening now -- national parks and communities are threatened by
droughts, wildfires, floods, sea level rise, heat waves, ice loss and
extreme weather events.

Nearly everything we know and love about our parks
is threatened by the changing climate. Some of their most
iconic plants and animals are on the brink of extinction, while many
of their lakes and rivers are drying up, glaciers are melting, beaches
are eroding, and historic structures are crumbling. Once
park cultural and historic resources are lost, they are lost
forever. 

Current legislation before Congress is the
boldest opportunity we have to address the crisis
we are in. Join us to learn from a panel of experts on
the significant progress current legislation could make in
addressing climate change, the role parks play in
public climate discourse, and the policies NPCA, and
members and supporters like you, are fighting to get enacted into law.
