Answer:
Rapid urbanization, which strains basic infrastructure, coupled with more frequent and extreme weather events linked to global climate change is exacerbating the impact of environmental threats. Common environmental threats include flooding, tropical cyclones (to which coastal cities are particularly vulnerable), heat waves and epidemics.
Owing to the physical and population density of cities, such threats often result in both devastating financial loss and deaths. Making cities more resilient against these environmental threats is one of the biggest challenges faced by city authorities and requires urgent attention.

Answer:
Major issues and problems confronting US cities today include those involving fiscal difficulties, crowding, housing, traffic, pollution, public education, and crime. Several of these problems stem directly from the fact that cities involve large numbers of people living in a relatively small amount of space. Environmental impacts of megacities – megacity footprints. Megacities can affect the environment in several ways. The population consumes food and energy and produces waste in solid, liquid, and gaseous form in order to sustain themselves and pursue business activities such as manufacture or services.Living in a city can also affect your sleep quality and cardiovascular health. Not only can city life affect our mental well-being, it can also affect our physical health as well. A 2017 study suggests too much exposure to air pollution and city noise may cause damage to a person's cardiovascular health. As well as being lower emitters per resident, cities are also decarbonising at a faster rate, cutting carbon emissions by 36% between 2005 and 2017, against 31% for other areas. Although it remains a big polluter, the area around Middlesbrough has seen the biggest fall in emissions - 64% since 2011.
