Abstract :
This paper explores the options open to National Parks to develop a new, nationally important role in addressing the twin challenges through landscape scale management, soil carbon management, water management, renewable energy generation and localised food production. The paper argues that significant additional investment is required to support this expanded remit and what is possible in National Parks should be possible anywhere.
