“People often tell me that they get lost in malls. Malls are a habitat. Some of us are natives. If you grew up hiking, you know to look for blazes. If you grew up with malls, you know to look for the anchor stores, the fountain, the food court. Orient yourself to those cardinal points before you set out.”
― Alexandra Lange, Meet Me by the Fountain: An Inside History of the Mall

“The falling populations of all Britain's wildlife, due in no small part to the disappearance and degradation of native habitats, are evidence that, despite their ties to our cultural heritage, the natural heritage of these lands is being allowed to collapse. In the words of the law, 'the creatures and habitats that belong to all' are being allowed to vanish.”
― Ben Jacob, The Orchid Outlaw: On a Mission to Save Britain's Rarest Flowers

“One... misconception is the idea that England is now mostly concreted over. Coupled to this is the idea that the onward march of bricks and mortar is the main cause of declining species and habitats. Neither assertion is true. Just 8.8 per cent of England is built on; 73 per cent is farmland, and 10 per cent is forestry. The biggest drivers of biodiversity loss in this country are modern agriculture, forestry and shooting. ...the greatest threat to the countryside comes from within it.”
