Urbanization

Benefits and ch anyenges of urbanisation SCI/275 University Of capital of Arizona In this paper I will be explaining the four factors that produce a potpourri in the world as well as urbanisation. urbanization is miserable from a rural ara to a big urban center in hopes of die fortune or employ a spacious with m some(prenominal) other(a) benefits. Urbanization may seem wish well a good idea to those trying to better themselves tho it has challenges in the city batch may face. I will be providing you with current or diachronic events that may be a benefit or a challenge of urbanization.Factors that may produce urbanization and a change in population be the birth consec position and death rate. expatriation and immigration be the other two factors that produce urbanization and the change in the population. The reason birth rate produces a change in population delinquent to a person added to the population size. This makes bingle(a) to a greater extent person to add to our population when a child is born. If the proceeds rate is more(prenominal) than zero than the population size increases (Hager&Hassenzahl, 2011, ch. 7). Birth rate produces urbanization because tribe want to be up to(p) to raise their children with concern or a c atomic material body 18er you may find in urban cities.Death rate produces population change because it decreases the population size. When a person dies it takes from the population size and produces a change in the population. Death rate produces urbanization in cities due to the call for level and diseases as well as health hazards. The growth rate of a population is the birth rate minus the death rate in cities (Hager&Hassenzahl, 2011, chp. 7). Emigration changes the population size to decreasing the population. Decreasing the population of the countries in which the singular may oblige left.Emigration produces urbanization because one might leave the outlandish in which he or she originated t o go to other domain for better opportunities. immigration changes the population by increasing it because bulk come into the county instead of leaving (Hager&Hassenzahl, 2011, ch. 7). Immigration produced urbanization when they came into the countries immigrants headed to the cities. The benefits of urbanization post be better c argoner or physical exercise opportunities. In cities more jobs could be tack together than in a rural ara.Compact increment is another benefit of urbanization which is the capability of the land (Hager&Hassenzahl, 2011, chp. 7). Cities may try to encourage antithetical means of transportation so the air wont be so polluted by too galore(postnominal) vehicles. Availability of goods and services is another benefit of urbanization. Rural argonas fagt put up as legion(predicate) muckleinesses that may be unspoilt to individuals. Such as the choice to what college you want to go to for education. Cities assume more than one college who may sta nd better opportunities for a person.Closer to the hospital and restaurants, libraries, gas stations, relatives and friends. Rural argonas argon spread out and flock make to travel much(prenominal) great distance in order to receive goods and services needed. The challenges of urbanization have to do with the surroundings in which these city people depart in. The condition of the water and sewer which people drink from which is caused by pollution. Pollution in the air is another challenge of urbanization. In well-nigh cities have congested streets and the cars may let off air pollutions. Congestion also of housing and factories within the city is also an environmental problem.Factories within the city also let off air pollutions that may be harmful to people and the environment. These cause health problems in some(prenominal) that may cause death. In some cities they may be faced with poverty and slum housing such as ghettos (Hager&Hassenzahl, chp. 7). There are many challen ges in urbanization when people live in cities and the population increases in hope of a better conduct for an individuals family. An pattern of more employment opportunities in the cities is the use of factories for employment of the people who come to the city.There are more businesses so there are many business opportunity for people to make a career in the cities. Efficiency of land is used because buses and bicycles were developed for people to move around instead of using all automobiles. many a(prenominal) businesses such as hospitals, places to have fun, bus stations were created as well as places to receive the resources from. Challenges of urbanization examples are congested streets of New York metropolis where everything is so close together with one another. Another example is an immigrant coming to America from a different county in hopes of receiving employment.Other people are doing the like thing so there is much disceptation in cities for jobs. Once many people are employed the wages tend to drop to be able to pay for employees such as minimum wage of the city. A person starts off with this wage and stool his or her path up to more money after a period of measure. Poverty example is people victuals on the streets in these big cities are con brassred homeless due to the fact of otiose to stay employed or health conditions that may put him or her out of work and be able to provide for the family.Health problems may arise as tail endcer or lung cancer and breathing problems. These problems may eventually kill a person from the pollution within the city water and sewer, and air. The unemployment office in cities has been establish to help people search for work in cities. I believe that there are more challenges of urbanization than benefits. There are many environmental issues that cities may be faced with. The cities have to control those issues before it beneficial to the people living there. Too many people in one place cause conges tion and are the main cause of some of the environmental problems.They offer employment just now the wages sometimes arent enough for the person to survive in the city. Therefore poverty sets in as well as crimes in these cities causing harm to people and the environment because people are trying to make it in these cities. Urbanization could be beneficial and yet challenging. Depending on the city you move to in hopes of a change from the area in which you may previously live. Some people its all about survival to take care of his or her family or to establish employment.Many challenges and struggles may be faced for a person living in these cities especially with the increase of population size. expose life may only be a hope and survival for a person considering the competition that has been produced by the population increase and the environmental problems of overpopulation.

Thus, we face the complex problem Urbanization. Urbanization has been a subject of heated sermon for a long time. Some people are in favor, while others are opposed. In my opinion, urbanization benefits human beings quite a than do harm to them. Two reasons may account for my conclusion. Firstly, urbanization enriches our life. We can hazard what will pass away without convenient traffic system, without big department stores, without KTVs and many other entertainments?To some extent, it is impossible for human beings to live in this world. Urbanization make it possible for us to enjoy our life more than before, Also,urbanization quicken the curtilage of science, especially in the communication field, in the early time, if we want to i nterrelate with our family members or friends, the only way we can choose is writing letters. But urbanization changed this situation, we can dialogue with the friends in the foreign countries with our any difficulties through the Internet, we gain whatever information we need on the internet. These creature comforts are brought by the urbanization.Secondly, urbanization also raise our country economy. As we all get laid, the policy of iron out and inception give our country a golden opportunity to develop our economy, we have a lead olfactory modality about the spectacular increasing of our living standard, many productions that we cannot afford in the past time can be possess in today. This phenomenon proves that urbanization benefits our life basically. With the fast step of urbanization, many job opportunities are supplied in the trading market which make many rural migrant workers get a straight work in the urban area.They also contribute to the economic development i n the urban area. These prosperities are definitely brought by the urbanization. I live in Shanghai, and it is a typical big city in China. I found that we also have many negative sides of urbanization. For instance, we can talk to the friends thousands miles away, but we dont know our neighbours in the high-rises many migrant workers do not enjoy the same win and rights as the constant unban residents and this will make their living without and insurance system.But we dont need to be so pessimistic of the situation at hand. It is evident that the proceedss of urbanization outweigh the disadvantages. What we should do is to quell the positive side , meanwhile to conquer the negative side. Our government will also enrol many effective policies to compress this contradictory. So we have enough reasons to believe the situation will become better and better so that we can reach our aim better city, better life UrbanizationNowadays, with the fast development of economy of the worl d, many cities become bigger and bigger and many modern cities are appearing.

In my opinion, urbanization benefits human beings rather than do harm to them. Two reasons may account for my conclusion. Firstly, urbanization enriches our life. We can imagine what will happen without convenient traffic system, without big department stores, without KTVs and many other entertainments?To some extent, it is impossible for human beings to live in this world. Urbanization make it possible for us to enjoy our life more than before, Also,urbanization quicken the pace of science, especially in the communication field, in the early time, if we want to connect with our family members or friends, the only way we can choose is writing letters. But urbanization changed this situation, we can talk with the friends in the foreign coun tries with our any difficulties through the Internet, we gain whatever information we need on the internet. These conveniences are brought by the urbanization.Secondly, urbanization also raise our country economy. As we all know, the policy of Reform and Opening give our country a golden opportunity to develop our economy, we have a direct feeling about the dramatic increasing of our living standard, many productions that we cannot afford in the past time can be owned in today. This phenomenon proves that urbanization benefits our life basically. With the fast step of urbanization, many job opportunities are supplied in the occupation market which make many rural migrant workers get a solid work in the urban area.They also contribute to the economic development in the urban area. These prosperities are definitely brought by the urbanization. I live in Shanghai, and it is a typical big city in China. I found that we also have many negative sides of urbanization. For instance, we can talk to the friends thousands miles away, but we dont know our neighbours in the high-rises many migrant workers do not enjoy the same profits and rights as the permanent unban residents and this will make their living without and insurance system.But we dont need to be so pessimistic of the situation at hand. It is evident that the advantages of urbanization outweigh the disadvantages. What we should do is to remain the positive side , meanwhile to conquer the negative side. Our government will also introduce many effective policies to narrow this contradictory. So we have enough reasons to believe the situation will become better and better so that we can reach our aim better city, better life UrbanizationTwo article that are referred to In this paper from handbook include Problems of arbitrement In the CB Traffic Congestion and The Problems of urban life story Today . These articles take into account the issues in relation to urban life these days. People are Increasingly movi ng Into cities from villages to make better livelihood and enhance the standard of life. This process of migration from rural to urban areas is called arbitration. Consequently, the urban areas are growing in their sizes.The pace with which arbitration is taking place, it will urbanize 64% of the developing vocal and 86% of the developed world up till 2050 as per a reputation published In The Economist (2012). This shows that the process of arbitration Is taking place continuously and it is general. The elements which attract people towards urban areas are Increased number of health facilities, abundant resources, various entertainment facilities, multiculturalism, better employment opportunities, increased number of education opportunities, quicker transportation modes, etc.However, there also exist various problems despite these varied temper of advantages associated with urban life. These problems exist as much in magnitude as do the facilities or advantages of urban life. Th is can be so estimated that although the issue of transportation is resolved due to increased number of unrestricted transportation and personal vehicles but this has given rise to other problem which Is the problem of congestion. The cycles which are already crowded with Increased number of people moving into them are getting more crowded due to these congestion issues.This issue has equally been highlighted both in the BBC report of 2014 and by Powell (2013). Powell (2013) enlisted a number of problems in his article and stated that problems eke air pollution, over crowdedness, waste of factories, living cost and rate of crimes are all adding up to the difficulties In the urban life. The report by BBC (2014) took Into account various problems associated with arbitration and discussed each one of them in detail and their impact.The report highlighted the ever increasing problems of housing particularly after the accession of UK to European union, the issues about sewerage, congest ion problems, life standard in cities as compared to outer parts of cities, etc. Many of these Issues are not referred to In the article Ritter by Powell (2013). The reality of urban life can be quite daunting despite the perks which are usually associated with it. The report by BBC (2014) observed that those who lived in aboriginal capital of the United Kingdom were prone to fall ill more than those people who lived in outer London boroughs.Such Illnesses forbid people from working. Furthermore, the unemployment rate in central parts of the city was higher as compared to the 1 score The report also highlighted the increasing demand for more houses for increased number of migrants particularly of European furrow due to Britains accession to European Union as a member state. The Union guarantees free front of persons, capital, services and goods within the member states. This has brought in a number of people from other member states to London particularly the ones from Poland s ince it became part of Union.By 2030, the demand for more houses will reach around 3 million. The government in response has to provide additional homes and decide whether the development would take place on Brownfield or Greenfield. The development on former is advantageous in the sense that it already provides a Mathew developed structure which makes it easier to fix the structure for living purposes with fewer additional costs. The advantage of developing Greenfield is of bringing arbitration and its benefits to rural areas.However, light if any structure is available in Greenfield unlike Brownfield. The concept of sustainable cities is also gaining grip these days. These cities are the ones which are intended to be self-sufficient and are environment friendly in their operations. The main advantage of such cities is that they do not affect the environment much as compared to other urbanize places. Lehman, 2010) BBC (2014) report gave account of four cities which are turned int o echo-towns with Whitehall Borden being one of them.The aim behind developing such cities is to lessen the impact of city life on environment by ensuring lesser carbon footprints, supporting energy conservation, employing renewable resources, cycling and walking or using public transport more than the individual cars, employ at local level, Resultantly, the city which will emerge will not only be self-sufficient but will also be environment friendly. It will have a lesser impact on the environment from one should to the community level. That is why the British government awarded GAP 10 million worth of grant to Whitehall Borden city.This shows that the government is encouraging environment friendly communities with the increase in arbitration so that the environment can be preserved. This also shows that due to increased pace of arbitration environment is at stake which has compelled government(s) to encourage echo-friendly towns. Hence, the dangers posed by arbitration are manifol d Just like the advantages and has equal number of issues as has the perks. The articles referred to gave account of such issues which encircle the increased pace of arbitration. These issues are widespread and are major.Such issues can affect the health of the people which is clear from the graphs shown in the BBC (2014) report which showed that people living in central parts of London were prone to develop illness more than the rest. Therefore, people in urban areas are more vulnerable and open to risks than the ones in rural areas. However, there is still a solution to this issue which is to develop environment friendly towns. The introduction and development of such towns will References Powell, Christopher (2013) The Problems of Urban Life Today.UrbanizationNowadays, with the fast development of economy of the world, many cities become bigger and bigger and many modern cities are appearing.
