Urbanization And Rising Respiratory Problems

Ever since I’ve been doing these current events I have come across some very supportive articles and disapproving articles. Recently however I have made my own opinion of urbanization. It’s a good thing because it provides jobs and better community unity, involvement, resources, and economy for the people and the cities. However, the longer I do this and research about the effects of urbanization the bad usually out way the good. It makes me think that urbanization is not a permanent fix and will soon come to an end. Leaving behind a lot of things to fix in the process.

This article refers to a bad side effect of urbanization. It’s funny because even in the article the author refers to how urbanization is not bad. Because if the right precautions are taken then the environmental issues will not be a concern now or in the future. But of course the precautions were not and have not been taken and now there are issues about respiratory problems. All the urban activities the pollution global warming due to pollution plus the poor indoor air quality. The quality of the air we breathe affects the way our body works. The more factors contributing to that cause a lot of new problems for urban people to deal with. The motor vehicle admissions with in the city and all of the other smog so close to living quarters can cripple the respiratory system. Children and older people are highly vulnerable and not only can this obviously cause issues but a life long struggle of asthma and respiratory issues.
