"One of us is an affordable housing advocate, the other an environmental advocate, and we have different wish lists. The housing advocate likes clean water, clean air, and open space. The environmentalist likes having a decent, affordable place to live in a diverse community with good schools. Are we asking for too much? We don't think so. We don't think we should have to choose between affordable homes and a healthy environment."
