According
to Cornwall Council, Cornwall is on a narrow peninsula – and there
is no inland part more than twenty miles from the sea. The coastline
is more than 400 miles long, including 158 miles of Heritage Coast.
Many people have a sea view. Fishing and tourism rely on the
persistent health and beauty of this coast. So, how is there so much
planning for new towns – without providing the needed
infrastructure? The coast will be polluted by sewage and dirty
drainage from roads, cars and a lot of concrete. In the meantime
people at the beach must be kept safe. Beachguards watch surfers and
swimmers in summer days. And at night and in winter the vehicles are
locked in a garage.
