The greenbelt is an area set…

The greenbelt is an area set aside to protect the aquifer and the communities near the area. Building on these lands defeats the move to reduce our carbon footprint. Canada is suffering from climate change much more than the population expected. We need strong leadership to intensify growth in order to make public transit feasible: not building extreme high rises but creating communities of lower rise rental, mixed age areas. we cannot continue to create communities that require cars as the only means of transit. We must insist that new builds meet stricter codes to reduce energy consumption.
