Cities have to be fed and provided with energy and water in order to exist and sustain its human population. The bigger the city, the more resources and energy must be extracted from the surrounding areas to sustain it.

This on the other hand creates another problem: environmental pollution. Peoples in cities are washing clothes, dishes, and go to the toilet. The waste produced in this way is flushed into water courses polluting it and making it unsuitable for human consumption or organisms to live in. Preparing food also creates waste, which ends often in landfills or is incinerated. Cars, fires to heat our homes and stoves to cook on pollute the air because of the use of wood, coal or gas, causing smog. The worst smog in Britain was the famous London smog of December 1952 in which about 3000 people died. However, the pollution mentioned above is mainly caused by domestic activities and transport. Industrial pollution is probably an even more serious problem leading to potentially poisoning the air, water and soil.
