It is a known fact that the builders lobby and specific real estate agents are working overtime to convert Goa from green to brown and this is having a serious affect on the environment, ecology not to mention severe land/air/water pollution and rising temperatures.
Goans must realise that to feed the greed of few, Goa and Goans in general are being compromised. Not to Mention, the huge black money component which is a major factor in pushing the real estate growth to such crazy heights and in turn destroying our beautiful state. We must recognize this fact and take the builders lobby to task and push for reduction in the indiscriminate buildup.
I appreciate that real estate is requirement to some point but what is happening in Goa today is beyond tolerable levels. Quote Mahatma Gandh "The world has enough for everyone's need, but not enough for everyone's greed".
Goan's must wake up before it's too late or be ready to pay the price for allowing this indiscriminate destruction.
