Any proposed project…

Any proposed project involving highways or other mass transportation networks need to undergo thorough environmental assessments. This is not just a matter of "clearing land". It infringes on animal habitats endangering all kinds of species, cuts through aquifers and moraines and other water sources, reduces the number of pollinators because biodiversity is lost, and creates all kinds of pollution which further devastates the environment We need to return to the nature rich country we once were and start preserving green spaces instead of mowing them over for more and more concrete. We won't be able to breathe in this country soon.
