Question

Explain the impact of the urban planning on the environment and its way
forward.

Answer 1

Urbanization in the future will pose direct threats to high-value ecosystems. Within cities, urban growth is also a considerable determinant of urban inhabitants’ vulnerability to environmental stress. The environmental influence of urban expansion reaches far beyond urban areas themselves. Urban expansion affects global climate, CO2 emissions, circulation of water, aerosols, and nitrogen in the climate system as well.
