Green Zones

¶ … city regions only. The overriding theme of the greenbelt policy around the cities as applies to entire world is discussed. Advantages of green belts around cities The provision of cleaner air as facilitated by the trees is discussed. The facilitation of the access to cleaner water around the city and regular rain is outlined. The ability to protect the natural environment is also expounded on and the problems that neglect of natural environment can lead to also well discussed.

The relationship between the greenbelts and the wildlife conservation in light of the wildlife-human conduct also highlighted. Rural life and the danger it is exposed to is also highlighted in the final section hence the need to conserve and erect the greenbelts.

Conclusion Greenbelts in Texas Cities The environment needs care form the people living within it and in particular, the urban centers must be taken care of in such a way that they are allowed to have breathers or lungs to continue serving the people who live within it hence the need for Greenbelts. A greenbelt is basically a policy or rules that guides the land use in the planning process so that there are undeveloped, agricultural land or wild land that surrounds the urban centers.

These areas are kept in reserve for open space within the larger cities. The basic reasoning behind greenbelts is to have a control to the urban sprawl and also maintain the assigned area for agriculture and forest cover as well as giving the wildlife a place to live in (The Tree Bench Company, 2014). There are several advantages that come with the retaining of the greenbelts, both to the environment and the people living within the cities hence should be made mandatory within the Texas cities.

The advantages are as follows; The greenbelts are aimed and bound to give cleaner air and water since the forest cover that will be in those regions will help in the conservation of the water towers. The water catchment areas will be conserved in such a manner that they will help in the completion of the water cycle with the trees and the bushes acting to attract rain to the region.

The urban area will hence benefit by having regular rainfall and also sources of pure water streams that culminate into rivers flowing around or through the cities. The trees within these green belts are also known to act as air cleaners since their photosynthesis process makes use of carbon dioxide and in exchange emit oxygen which is the clean air that is utilized by human beings, the cities with greenbelts around them benefit from the clear air circulation than those that have destroyed the forests around them.

The trees are also known to act as coolant to the air that rushes through them. Large forests around the cities will not only act as a wind breaker and in essence protect property within the city, but will also cool the air so that when it get into the city it is a cool breeze that will be enjoyed by many city dwellers. The green belts are also known to protects natural environments around the cities that they are established in.

There have never been any other known means to conserve environment than through the establishment of green belts. The cities that are established along the sea line or ocean fronts need to have green belts to conserve the sea line and the natural marine life from interference by the city life. Apart from just conserving the natural environments, it also helps the city dwellers to connect to the natural environment that the greenbelts create.

They are also known to help in the fight against global warming and help the earth retain its earlier natural form in terms of the climate and weather (West L., 2014). Texas needs to be actively involved in the protection of the natural environment hence the passing of this law will significantly put Texas on the map of those regions that are concerned about nature and the global warming challenge.

The green belts are also known for the fundamental part that they play in the protection of wild animals as well as the plants that are found therein. Since the areas covered by the city are often busy section with activities going on, noises from the busy schedules of people, exhaust fumes that make it difficult for birds to inhabit the region, the green belts are the only sections that can be a refuge for the wild animals that are in the region.

The human-wildlife conflict is significantly reduced by the existence of these greenbelts hence needs to be encouraged and indeed put to be a law in all the cities in Texas (Kamau David, 2013).

There is ned to have people around the city to turn to conservation instead of getting into activities that will act to encourage conflict between human beings and the wild animals that shall have been displaced from the destroyed natural green belts and hence forced to get into the human habitats or clash with human in the process of being driven from their natural habitats (Kuschk, 2012). The rural areas that surround the cities are also at risk once the cities are left unchecked and expand or sprawl wantonly.

The green belts hence are known to protect the character of rural areas that might otherwise be taken over by expanding suburbs. There is no better way to protect the rural areas from being changed totally hence lose their identity or even worse still be completely destroyed by the sprawling cities than the use of green belts. The rural areas are known to be characterized by the natural lifestyle, no high-rise buildings, natural conservation and care for the natural environment and the animals therein.
