European concern for wildlife was outlined by Dr Peter Baum, an expert in tile environment and natural resources division of the council, when he spoke at a conference arranged by the administrators of a British national park The park is one of the few areas in Europe to hold the councils diploma for nature reserves of the highest quality, and Dr Baum had come to present it to the park once again He was afraid that public opinion was turning against national parks, and that those set up in the 1960s and 1970s could not be set up today But Dr Baum clearly remained a strong supporter of the view that natural environments needed to be allowed to survive in peace in their own right No area could be expected to survive both as a true nature reserve and as a tourist attraction,, he went on The short-sighted view that reserves had to serve immediate human demands for outdoor recreation should be replaced by full acceptance of their importance as places to preserve nature for the future |
