Answer 4

yah it does. A lot. By the way its spelled urbanization.

Answer 5

Yes, but not the way many people think. Urbanization is not population increase; it is the concentration of population in particular areas. This makes it easier to implement environmental programs. It changes the form of pollution. Rural streams suffer from non-point pollution in the form of silt, fertilizers, and pesticides. Urban streams get less of these but more concentrated transportation-related pollutants. Balancing that to a slight extent is the availability of mass transportation in the urban environment. Can you imagine the effect on NYC or London if everyone had to drive to travel? (Think LA.)

Answer 6

Are you kidding Urbanization consumes the Environment ,worse than  fire, it replaces Nature with concrete and tar.
