Density doesn't save nature. Habitat protection laws save nature. Make sure that's part of the plan.

Also, the picture shows the saved nature very accessible to the density. This is not usually what these zoning plans have in mind.

Many important species, especially insects and their predators, can absolutely make good use of patchy suburban habitat if it is properly managed, moreso if it is networked, and natural space nearer homes benefits residents and the environment.

We can't keep saving mountaintops and deserts, we need to rehabilitate more of these nice valleys and riversides we all like to build cities on.
