Presentation transcript:

A Public Road through the Gordon Natural Area will destroy this ecological treasure because it would: Increase wildlife mortality Fragment the habitat by opening forest canopy, thereby eliminating interior forest habitat Disturb research & teaching Create a safety issue for users Increase stormwater runoff & associated pollution & siltation Increase non-native invasive plant populations Encourage more development Increase air pollution, human litter & encourage garbage dumping Destroy West Goshen’s last public link to Penn’s woods Gordon Natural Area The only green space in West Goshen dedicated to education & research (also located in Westtown & East Bradford)
