A moving suggestion

    I have been following the recent news regarding the proposed Playa Vista development. Particularly interesting are the facts surrounding the environmental impact of the project, much of it reported via the “Letters to the Editor” in your paper from Marcia Hanscom, of the Wetlands Action Network. Having tried to familiarize myself with both sides of the issue, I have only one question — How could anyone, with even an iota of a conscience, choose to strip Playa del Rey of its vital wetland area, especially to build an office development and movie studio? Since each of the principals of Dreamworks have homes in Malibu, it is hopeful that they will each look at the larger picture and consider the environmental ramifications of such a development and decide on the relocation of this project to a suitable location. It would seem that it would be rather an easy task for Messrs. Spielberg, Katzenberg and Geffen, in league with their Wall Street associates, to just relocate their studio, as it is certainly not an easy task to relocate the essential wetland that took nature so long to create.
