We all love our national parks, and public lands, but do you know the history of what it took to protect them? Some of our nation's most iconic spaces, including Yosemite and the Grand Canyon, would have been decimated by greedy corporations who saw these irreplaceable landscapes as nothing more than a “cash register.” Fortunately, Sierra Club and other advocates mounted intense public pressure campaigns to protect the spaces we know and love today. Every generation has faced its defining moment for public lands. Ours is now. Our most important parks are once again under attack. Learn the history of where we've succeeded, and how we can use lessons from the past to defeat current threats. -------------------- The Sierra Club is America’s largest and most influential grassroots environmental organization, with millions of members and supporters.
