Answer 1

Industry moved to the suburbs searching for cheap land and tax breaks helped fuel the expansion of urban areas.

Urban populations interact with their environment.

Urban people change their environment through their consumption of food, energy, water, and land.

And in turn, the polluted urban environment affects the health and quality of life of the urban population.
