Representation Summary:

Can I say that I would challenge the assumption that all brownfield sites are worthless as they may have become home to many endangered species as they have colonised long abandoned land, and some brownfield sites have higher biodiversity than green fields which are mono-culture deserts. There is no mention of light pollution and its impactWhile I admire your attempts to influence developments the reality will be pokey, poorly built and insulated houses and flats crammed in anywhere developers think they can get away with. It would be good if we could attract some of the better developers who could showcase how to build quality houses that people want to live in, and in an environment that is healthy for people. on wildlife or humans.
