Would you prefer no growth which would result in higher taxes to maintain infrastructure and services?

At any rate, how much preserved land is enough? Currently, in the U.S. there is approximately an acre of preserved land for every man, woman and child (over 320,000,000 acres). This does not take into consideration nearly a billion acres of farmland which also contributes to the quality of life of animals as well as humans.
