New Report Outlines What’s at Risk if We Lose Bay Area’s Greenbelt

Hosted by Michael Krasny

A report released Tuesday by the Greenbelt Alliance, a group dedicated to the protection of these lands, finds that an area almost 10 times the size of San Francisco could be developed in a generation. As Bay Area housing demand continues to grow, we’ll hear about the report and strategies to protect it from the forces of urban sprawl.
