Explanation:
- Poor air and water quality, insufficient water availability, waste-disposal problems, and high energy consumption are exacerbated by the increasing population density and demands of urban environments.
- Strong city planning will be essential in managing these and other difficulties as the world's urban areas swell.
- There was a time when the cities were not so densely populated, the skies were blue, people could actually stargaze from their homes in the cities at night and the rivers flowing were not toxic.
- It is every now and then that old people become nostalgic telling us about how the times were different in their days and how peaceful it was. There were actually people swimming in the rivers which are now polluted by factory waste, there was no need for air conditioners and whatnot.
- In recent times everything has changed. In my lifespan of 20 years I myself have witnessed my house being the only house in the area, now being clustered by other houses.
