@bobjmsn @LaChasseuse so having read the article, my question still stands. Why are more national parks a good thing? That article is a collection of positive statements without any actual data to back it up. It doesn't mention any of the problems that are clearly documented, which rings alarm bells for me about how useful the article is. I like the idea of National Parks, but I also think a critical eye is important if more are to be rolled out.
