Study Notes

Urbanization Challenges

  • Rapid rural and agricultural invasion leads to inadequate food supply, threatening food security and agricultural sustainability.
  • Urbanization and expansion result in congestion, pollution, and heightened health risks for urban residents.
  • Unprecedented space utilization contributes to large-scale social inequality, with disparities in access to resources and services.
  • The concentration of settlements creates urban space scarcity, making affordable housing increasingly difficult to find.

Urban Planning Issues

  • Poor urban planning and design cause spatial disorganization, leading to inefficient land use and transportation challenges.
  • Migration and increasing population density result in the development of poor quality dwellings, often lacking basic amenities and security.

Resource Management Struggles

  • Resource extraction and depletion contribute to poverty and hunger, as communities struggle to meet basic needs amid dwindling resources.
  • Social environment vulnerability is exacerbated by rising crime rates and increases in anxiety among residents, linked to urban stressors.

Infrastructure Strain

  • Unprecedented demand for water and energy supplies leads to insufficiency, straining existing infrastructure and limiting access for vulnerable populations.
