- Smart Growth:
-
"Sprawling land development is gobbling up the American countryside
at an alarming rate of about 365 acres per hour, often turning
open land into a network of strip malls, anonymous suburbs and
traffic-clogged roads. Some communities are choosing to develop
differently. Take a look at how real communities across the United
States are using smart growth solutions."
