Green Belt Land Being 'Sacrificed' For Housing

The video discusses the Greenbelt's role in preventing urban sprawl and the government's commitment to its protection. Despite this, there are concerns about increasing housing developments on Greenbelt land, particularly in areas like Central Bedfordshire. The government aims to build a million homes, leading to pressure on councils to make difficult decisions. While some argue for the necessity of these developments to address housing shortages, others see it as a threat to the Greenbelt's sanctity. The video explores potential solutions, such as utilizing non-environmentally designated land near stations.
