When do we say this is enough?
Each acre built on represents an acre of land with the potential for providing home-grown food, instead of importing so much. If we allow this sort of development to continue unchecked, when do we draw the line and say: “No more”?
Are we, like a lot of lemmings, rushing downhill to our own destruction? By adding thousands of fresh inhabitants, all demanding to be fed, while at the same time destroying the capability of agriculture to provide sustenance for such an increasing population, that is only one consequence of allowing the large-scale building threatening our countryside.
Furthermore, there must come a time when some sort of limit must be enforced on the number of vehicles trying to negotiate our crowded roads”
