The painful cost of booming growth | Seattle Times Newspaper (Local News) – Annotated

“Puget Sound is a funnel. Anything that we do at the top end of the funnel comes out at the bottom end.” Sometimes painful reading, this article looks at the effect of bad wastewater runoff management and its deleterious effect on the environment. “Barbie Doll” housing colonies are the worst offenders, not least because old bylaws & regulations haven’t kept up (or up to date) with new developments in treatment and approach.

if we can prevent environmental damage while growing our cities, that would certainly be ideal. But everything comes at a cost..unless everyone is willing to live with less progress, else this will not be the last salmon u see bellying up.
