'The countryside can pull us together, a connecting point for a nation that sometimes feels as though it is falling apart' After 75 years, the job required of national parks has changed. They now need to be hothouses of Nature recovery, and it’s time we got on with it, says Julian Glover. 'The countryside faces either terrible harm or uplifting good. Which will it be?
