Hello,
Myself along with everyone I have spoken with about this bill is strongly AGAINST it. It is not a good idea to take away all the years of hard work to put these important acts that protect the people and natural environments that we depend on for our survival. With climate change moving on its own course, we cannot continue our way of life by exploiting the Greenbelt and the natural surrounding areas trying to create developmental "growth" at the cost of our ecological environment.
This bill is not for the people. We cannot take shortcuts to destroy our natural environments for the sake of opening more businesses. The reasons these acts were put in place were to protect us and people who don't understand the importance of caring for our health and environment in the long run. This bill may seem like an okay idea right now, but it will only benefit the wealthy businesses and hurt the local people and environment. It especially will not help us in combating climate change.
Drinking water, natural areas, and farmlands are necessities for life and we need to continue to set precedence on protecting them, not making it easier for them to be destroyed. Please don't let this bill go through.
Thank you,
Vicki
