Vleis help keep our neighborhoods cool. The moisture evaporating from the wetlands acts as a natural air conditioner, combatting the "urban heat island" effect caused by tarred roads and concrete. They also provide beautiful, open green spaces that offer residents a quiet escape for walking, birdwatching, and enjoying fresh air.

It is so important for our children and their children’s future, instead of just thinking of today we need to ensure there is water for them, they are there for a reason and haven’t been touched until now for a reason, let the reason be more than the greed.

Water is life... why are you allowing life giving resource to die. This earth relies on vleis and wetlands. Drying up the water resource is a Crime against Humanity

We have to protect our green spaces and wetlands - water catchment is becoming a huge issue especially in these areas being overdeveloped. It would be great to keep more designated safe and maintained green outdoor areas/parks for public enjoyment as apposed to developments putting more strain on a struggling infrastructure

These green areas were planned and put aside knowing the importance of water movement. They need to stay GREEN

The land in question is vitally important as a wetland and as public open space.

Protecting this area is important because the vlei and natural waterway play a vital role in drainage, helping to reduce flooding and preserve the natural environment. Cutting down trees and destroying this habitat could have lasting consequences for our neighbourhood, wildlife and water systems. We need to protect our green spaces and ensure development does not come at the expense of our environment and community.

Harare is severely water stressed already. All streams, rivers and associated grassland wetland must be retrieved, restored and protected including this Umvinzi wetland, Steppes Rd, Chisipite
