Do you have a moment to help reduce carbon pollution in our national parks?

Click Here to Send Your Comments! Dear Reader, Do you have a moment to help reduce carbon pollution in our national parks? Carbon dioxide is one of the leading contributors to climate change, and power plants are among the biggest emitters of carbon dioxide in the United States. National Park Service (NPS) Director Jon Jarvis has called climate change “fundamentally the greatest threat to the integrity of our national parks that we have ever experienced.” The NPS has documented multiple effects of climate change already unfolding in national parks around the U.S., from melting glaciers to the growing frequency and intensity of wildfires, to coastal parks threatened by sea level rise. All of these forces imperil the long-term health of park roads, buildings, and cultural treasures, as well as plants, fish, and wildlife. June 25 is the deadline for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to adopt a Carbon Pollution Standard that would require all new power plants to use technologies that limit their carbon pollution. This is a small but critical step in addressing climate change. By lowering the amount of carbon pollution that future power plants can emit, EPA’s rule would likely result in the adoption of cleaner technologies that mean less haze, smog, acid rain, and climate change impacts in our national parks. Take Action: Join over a million Americans who have already told the EPA that they agree with the Carbon Pollution Standard. Encourage EPA to finalize this proposal and require future power plants to use the best technology to reduce carbon pollution. Thank you for helping bring cleaner air to national parks in the near term and for helping us address the serious threats that climate change poses to the long-term health of our National Park System. Future generations will appreciate your action. Sincerely, Mark Wenzler Vice President, Climate and Air Quality Programs

The water flow was at peak levels as the day before was the end of an almost week long Nor'Easter for New England where many communities throughout New Hampshire and Maine are cleaning up from disastrous washouts and rain damage.

This particular location is handicap accessible, the trail up to the Baths has a fine clay and gravel surface hard enough and level enough to navigate a wheelchair. Not all areas are accessible by wheel chair but there is a nice outlook area that can be reached and still enjoy the view of the main attraction to the area.
