North Mountain environmental tragedy

1. an event causing great suffering, destruction, and distress, such as a serious accident, crime, or natural catastrophe.
If you live in Canton you notice that the number of McMansions keeps growing. Just this last week I went for a walk up the mountain and a sight that stopped me in my tracks. Hundreds of trees cut down to make room for, you guessed it. Another McMansion. The impact that these houses have on the community is a net loss. How can the people who buy, sell or construct these eye sores live with themselves? It has an environmental impact on all the people who live near by. It is so sad that people are more concerned with how many square feet of home they have than air to breathe. It's a cryin' shame...
