National parks along Lake Superior to be first to fully decarbonize

The Lake Superior national parks are expected to be the first nationwide to comprehensively decarbonize, which means to eliminate carbon-dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere. The federally designated โ€œfriendsโ€ group for the five national parks along Lake Superior already had decarbonization plans in the works when federal infrastructure and inflation reduction money became available. Now the plan to bring those parks completely off fossil fuels is expected to provide a climate action blueprint for other national parks. Three of the Lake Superior national parks are in Michigan: Isle Royale, Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore in Munising, and Keweenaw National Historic Park in Calumet. Among the biggest challenges in the effort is decarbonizing Isle Royale National Park as an island park offshore in Lake Superior, Irvine said.

Luckily, Michigan offers plenty of refuge for grieving souls โ€“ forests and thickets; rivers and lakes; beaches and trails. The boats that usually motored us to the island werenโ€™t running. Since the boats werenโ€™t running, we basically had the island to ourselves when we landed. The remote island was even more empty due to the pandemic. But getting lost in the thickets in Michigan allowed us to put them into perspective.
