Dear editor,Regarding the Comox Valley Record article "Crown Isle gets Audubon Sanctuary Designation" (Record, March 18)."We are deeply committed to environmental sustainability at Crown Isle, so we decided to mitigate our course's environmental impact and worked towards receiving Audubon certification."How do you mitigate clearcutting Lannon Forest and the lost water retention ability of this and the whole of the Crown Isle area, which is the headwaters of Brooklyn Creek and Little River?How do you mitigate the lost habitat of the countless birds which used to live there?Inventory of wildlife is easy when their plant life habitat is inventoried as cubic meters of logs and "luxurious residential real estate homes, integrated throughout the course, spacious split-level villas and fine dining establishments that source only the finest regional ingredients."Sorry, but your record shows that even though the community, your neighbours throughout the valley, wanted the former Crown Land left intact as a park, your money talked, the provincial government listened and you turned it into the only thing it seems you value ... more money. Your being "deeply committed to environmental sustainability at Crown Isle'' sounds like what it is, greenwashing, and on St. Patrick's Day at that. Your latest environmentally friendly project of burning the slash left from the clearcut has been duly noted. Keep up the sham.Waiting fearfully for your next act of corporate social responsibility.M. McLachlan,Comox
