HOUSING INTENSIFICATION

Garth from Hillcrest

I have made my feelings clear about the above topic but cant help revisiting it. Today, on my way from work I witnessed another of the now normal projects in progress. I couldn't help but cringe at the sight of beautiful brown, rich, life sustaining soil being scraped off the section to make way for a concrete/ building base. I am unashamedly a person of the earth and it just looks and feels like Mother Nature is being abused. I can't help thinking we are no better than those burning the Amazon or who engage in other activities which desecrate the earth. Once upon a time there was at least some recycling of building materials by demolition companies. Now, dwellings get bulldozed and end up in landfill. Very hypocritical from councils, the government and Greens to let this happen.
