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).

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.
