Firstly, it saddens me to read in the papers every day about the efforts that should be being put in by Governments nd ordinary folk to slow/or stop the global warming?. The increasing use of “GREENFIELD SITES for building is undoubtedly accelerating the final outcome.
Our Children and the children of the future are not going to experience the pleasure that I and others enjoy today. S bestow Valley Nature Reserve is quite unique in it’s diversity of Wild flowers, trees, amphibians and birds. Some of these are quite rare and will be destroyed if the WEC development goes ahead. I do know that there are [redacted] on the WEC site and I know it is forbidden to develop such sites. My lifetime experience has shown me that when man moves in with a development, the wild life moves out or perrishes. And the folk that daily walk Smestow valley will be reduced in numbers. The Smestow Valley Nature reserve is the only large green Space in the Wolverhampton area and an awful lot of people will be upset and angry if the development goes ahead Smestow Valley is the future for our children and their children, development go Greenfields has to stop. yours Terry [redacted].
