Inabsorption.orderto protect the ecological environment around London, many policies and organizations are preventing the development of green belts. But in fact, deforestation, land reclamation and ecological damage still exist in the green belt.

The State of Nature report also found that the area inhabited by officially designated "priority species" has shrunk by 27%. The species are those deemed most important and threatened, and include hedgehogs, hares and bats, many birds such as the willow tit and the turtle dove, and insects such as the high brown fritillary butterfly.

Influenced by Howard's idyllic city theory, the Green Belt was designated to stop urban sprawl. The historical process of Green Belt formation has been accompanied by different functions of the Green Belt at different times, but the most important role of the Green Belt as defined by the current National Planning Policy Framework is to contain the unrestricted sprawl of large built-up areas. At the same time, however, certain other forms of development are permitted in the Green Belt as long as they maintain their openness and do not conflict with the purpose for which the land is incorporated (e.g. mineral Theseextraction).policies

Britons love their green belts, and any attempt to develop on them is bound to meet fierce opposition. The new poll found that 90 per cent of respondents familiar with the concept were in favour of greening around UK cities. While only one percent disapproved.

Tree 2020 Tree Loss

The causes of the losses are the intensification of farming, pollution from fertiliser, manure and plastic, the destruction of habitats for houses, the climate crisis and invasive alien species. The State of Nature report shows no significant improvement since the last one in 2016, which said the UK was "among the most nature-depleted countries in the world". Preference

suggest that the primary role and management of the Green Belt is currently not ecologically relevant and that much of the Green Belt is not even open to the public due to the complexity of land ownership and management in the UK. London's rapid development and population growth is also putting pressure on Green Belt policy, but we do not believe that building housing in the Green Belt is the answer, but rather that the primary function of the Green Belt should be changed from preventing urban sprawl to the ecological and agricultural functions of the Green Belt. By improving the ecology of the green belt, adding value to the land, developing sustainable agriculture, and managing fragmented land through an app or webpage, we hope to engage different groups of people, facilitate government and farmers to manage their own land in a situation where land ownership and management rights are confusing, and include people in activities to optimise and manage the land. Increasing the value of green belts close to low density suburbs (e.g. providing agricultural employment, increasing children's activities) without losing green belt area, exacerbating ecological anxiety, addressing practical needs and not leaving green belts in a constrained state.

types of forests in green belt provide multiple eco-system benefits which include urban cooling, improved air quality, flood protection and carbon

First of all, analyzed the buildings, roads, land cover and terrain in the site and gave them the resistance value of ecological flow. The closer to the building, the greater the resistance, and the smaller the resistance away from the building. The closer you get to the road, the greater the resistance, and the smaller the resistance away from the road. The smaller the topographic relief, the smaller the resistance, and the greater the topographic relief, the greater the resistance. The resistance of forests and wetlands is the smallest, and the resistance of developed areas is the largest.

On this basis, we give the minimum resistance value to the grassland to be transformed. Promote the grassland area into an area that is as easy for biological flow as the forest, and connect the ecological habitat. Finally, we use linkage mapper to calculate the lowest cost ecological corridor through grassland.
