Abbey believes industrial tourism is becoming a bigger problem to all national parks. In abbey’s opinion he thinks motor vehicles should be prohibited on the grounds of any national monument. “ we have agreed not to drive our automobiles into cathedrals, to concert halls, art museums…we should treat our national parks with the same deference, for they, too, are holy places” (pg. 65). Abbey believes that the only way to truly experience the beauty of nature is to walk through, bike ride through, or horseback ride through. As said before abbey is a humanist and has not sympathy for the elderly who travel to national parks for vacations, he says they “had the opportunity to see the country when it was still relatively unspoiled” (pg. 67). He also has no sympathy for children who are “too small to ride bicycles and too heavy to be borne on their parents’ backs.” (pg.…

In the early 20th century many parks and forests were finally getting recognition and being preserved for the future. National parks and forests have been included in society for so long that without them, nothing would really be the same. Most places like this would be a surprising fact to have known about in the 19th- 20th century because most people would talk about urbanization in the big cities. The gilded age took place in the early years of the 20th century which was the period where the U.S. really started the whole economic growth change. It was the age of fast industrialization and urbanization mostly happening in the more factory based cities with not much natural or healthy conditions. Before the gilded age was the progressive era,…
Park ch 10 As child growing up some of the frightful memories include a visit to the dentist; an evil man with scary drill whose solve purpose is to hurt you or the first day in elementary school you finally leave all behind the cozy classrooms and nap times of kindergarten and enter the big leagues. All of these are considered a cakewalk compared to standardize testing. Since the start of elementary school students in the United States are taught to test. In many instances students are held back or placed in remedial classes because of lower grades. But many don’t realize that some students are not great at testing taking and because of the lower grades some educators believe that these students are lower achievers. This leads to lower self-esteem and encourage students to drop out in later years. Also students are forced to memorize information merely as facts without sparking their creativity or enhancing their knowledge.…
