"Undeveloped
land inside and outside existing municipal boundaries must
be part of the solution, particularly in northern and rural
communities, but isn’t nearly enough on its own. Most of the
solution must come from densification. Greenbelts and other
environmentally sensitive areas must be protected, and
farms provide food and food security. Relying too heavily
on undeveloped land would whittle away too much of the
already small share of land devoted to agriculture. "
These words come straight from the Report of the Ontario Affordable Housing Taskforce. Opening up the Greenbelt for development is so short-sighted. If we are to have a meaningful impact on climate change emissions, we should be aiming for denser communities that decrease out reliance on cars.
Once paved and built on, these lands are lost - wetlands are destroyed, habitat for at risk species is lost forever. Please do not allow this.
