Loss of greenbelt & greenfield sites for housing negatively affects the environment, releasing carbon from the land & losing that land's ability to capture new carbon. Wildlife and plant life already under stress, are displaced & loss of green spaces has a negative effect on communities. Our green and pleasant land will soon be no more.
If you value your environment, the health of your children, our green spaces & associated flora & fauna, you must sign this petition to Preserve Our Country.
