I took this picture, because this beautiful patch of land may be a road or a strip mall!! Adding to global warming, and taking away the natural beauty of the earth!! How 'bout one less strip mall one less resort, Think about it, all the little animals and insects losing there home! You lose one link on the chain, and it's like a domino effect ! Wake up and smell the roses before it's to late!!

My parents' house used to be surrounded by wetlands. Now it's surrounded by strip malls.

Are you joking? That photo is a 'beautiful patch of land'? What area are you posting about?

WestBank of New Orleans is much better example of wetlands converted to city, residential, commerical and 'strip malls'.

I think it's a good example! It s arizona, but could be anywhere!! The point is that our nature is being turned into strip malls and roads and such...........

Added a second picture of Arizona, to give more perspective!!! Let's keep our land and wildlife here!! We have enough malls........... This is about 20 minutes outside of PHX. AZ!!T's really beautiful, I just want to keep it that way !! This, I had to angle the picture so it will "look" like it's all nature, new buildings are already to the right of this picture!.......So sad......Not to mention the planets health.
