I took NGM for years I took NGM for years . It was so wonderful I could not throw a copy away .I stopped my subscription for several years and last year when I was asked what I wanted for Christmas I said “ NGM subscription . When I returned from Arizona I found three issues waiting . What a disappointment ! No trouble throwing issues away now . Who ever chose to change what was a ” world renown “ magazine ( probably to cut cost ) destroyed a “National Treasure “ ! How sad , thanks for allowing my constructive comment .

People handling subscriptions are a disaster Almost a year ago I paid for a subscription to Nat Geo History. Everything was correct, but from day one they got my address INCORRECT and despite all my complaining e-mails, they have continued to do so for almost a FULL YEAR and I have yet to recieve a single copy. They are apparantly unaccountable for such mistakes and are certainly uncaring, or they would had made things right by now. Read the other reviews with people with similar problems. I feel nothing but frustration and anger for such avoidable incompetence and only wish I could be listened to.

The Nat Geo mag was once a venerated… The Nat Geo mag was once a venerated chronicle of people and places—no more. It has digressed into a pop culture social rag with issues found on every media site. Its become “Mother Jones” with an Atlas. Too bad! It desperately needs another editorial team in order to restore it former glory.

Low quality popscience with no integrity I used to love Nat Geo's magazines and read stacks of old issues almost cover to cover back when I assumed that the content was genuine and scientific. The illusion first shattered when I discovered the "Dog Whisperer" TV show that masqueraded abuse as dog training, and saw that Nat Geo just ignored all the damning critique from highly educated actual behaviour specialists, who implored them to stop the show because it is 1. unscientific, and 2. likely to harm many pet dogs as viewers try to emulate Millan's methods from the popular show. Nat Geo continued the show year after year because the show is popular, and because science, ethics and integrity apparently does not matter... all the sciency gloss is just pretend

Down the Tubes I have been a National Geographic member/subscriber for over 50 years. I read my parents magazines for almost 20 years before that. I will be a member no longer. I can no longer tolerate the racist, sexist bent of this once vibrant magazine. The editor has brought her lack of scientific background and personal prejudices to bear on her work--where it has no place. Every issue is has become a far left opinion piece instead of fact-based story with broad interest. Too bad.
