A STUDY OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ON URBANIZATION

Sandeep Kumar

Abstract :

In the last 10,000 years, humans have become increasingly powerful environmental forces. With the arrival of agriculture 8,000 years ago, we started changing the land. And with the Industrial Revolution, we started to influence our environment. Recent growth in the world‘s population has increased the effects of our agricultural and economic activities. But the increase in the world population has masked that there can be another important human–environmental conversation: While the population of the world is doubling, the urban population of the world is three times as fast as possible. Over the next few years, half of the world‘s population lives in urban areas.
