Upon first reading this headline, I felt pretty skeptical, but as I started mentally ticking off parks, it seems more likely

Biscayne Bay- ocean acidification, Dry Tortugas and any island parks- sea level rise, Everglades - sea level rise and saltwater intrusion, Congaree - increased hurricanes, Acadia - wildfires, everything out west - desertification, California - forest fires...
