Doug Burgum, the US Interior Secretary, reversed a plan aimed at the elimination of single-use plastics in national parks.
The decision aligns with a Trump executive order from March regarding the portrayal of America’s history.
Burgum’s May 20 order mandates that all national parks display signs for visitors to report disparaging information about Americans.
The directives seek to regulate how American history, particularly concerning colonial times, is presented in national parks.
These changes represent a broader strategy to influence the historical narrative accessed by visitors to these sites.
