The Global Ecological Crisis - the huge reductions in numbers of species, and increasing numbers of extinctions, has as many implications for human existence as the related issue of Climate Change. In many cases this crisis has been driven by massive infrustructure projects, both here and across the globe, whether in the shape of dams, huge housing projects, road building, transport projects and so forth. It is as completely non-sensical to build, of all things, a theme park on one of the last and largest untouched habitats in this part of the South East as it is to open new a coal mine in the Cumbria, and at the same time claim be be building back "Better" or "Greener". Jobs in a Theme Park in this location (including the structural engineering etc) are NOT Green Jobs, and cannot claim to make any contribution to a Green Economy. It will instead have a massive impact on the natural environment
