The East of England Plan will mean more houses, traffic, noise, planes and pollution. How much can the East of England region take without irretrievably damaging the environment and destroying our quality of life? The government wants the East of England to accept 500,000 houses over the next 16 years.

Does the driest region in the country have enough room and water to accommodate this increase in population without destroying our quality of life, our wildlife, our tranquility, and our heritage? Where will the water come from for this development?
