High reliance on greenfield sites could lead to loss of valuable agricultural land and natural habitats. This will inevitably impact on food security. Also, the urban focussed strategy to develop to develop “brownfield sites” in unique and historical waterfront areas may require extensive remediation and infrastructure improvements which may impact on the viability of these sites.
Therefore, such sites should not be considered, or included without the necessary sensitivity analysis to support an informed decision-making process. Such analysis should include CO2 emissions and air pollution before, after and during the development.

The closure of Chatham Docks will increase CO2 emissions. Transporting cargo by water to Medway (which is one of the greenest soliutions) will be a thing of the past.. It is submitted that "CO2 emissions and air quality will worsen by 300% with the closure of Chatham Docks making this area one of the worse affected areas inbthe UK outside cental London". We should not allow this to happen.
