There are more pressing areas we need to save for food - like the Hawkesbury River flats, such as around Pitttown, which is threatened with development - and that is prime food growing land with wonderful soils. Badgery's Creek is ok, but we need to prioritise the fights for foodland in Sydney.Your enthusiasm for Peak Oil understanding is admirable, but Badgery's Creek makes so much sense for
Western Sydney from so many perspectives, particularly as the only activity that can generate the needed amount of jobs for the area in the long term. NSW Govt say that most of the jobs in the future will need to be generated in Western Sydney. This is the one project that can give this goal the greatest boost.

Yes,
We need to mobilise ALL of Sydney to start marching for a better city full stop. The planning in this city is woeful. There are Third World Cities with more decisive and visionary planning than Sydney.All the NSW Government does is prop up the Development Industry.
The Department of Planning should be called the Department for Loving and Caring for Developers.March everyone, like in the '60s - let's shout so loud that those hopeless non-representatives in Macquarie Street hear us, and we get useful, frequent reliable transport and better planning. Let's March until this happens
