Overpopulation of urban areas has led to numerous problems. Identify one or two serious ones and suggest ways that governments and individuals can tackle these problems.

Overpopulation in urban areas, has become a serious problem. They have led to many consequences.

This

essay will discuss the reasons for

this

problem and put forward solutions that the government and the individuals, should take to handle these critical situations. Quite a lot of people, prefer moving to the urban areas for the sake of own well-being. Due to

this

, many industries started to find an appropriate place, so that it would attract all the people coming for jobs. As, many people started to move, the population in the urban places, grew at a dramatic rate, whereas there was a huge decline in the number of trees.

However

,

this

seems to be the major reason why there is a reduction in rainfall, in the cities. The ruling body can likely introduce separate places for the residents and all those industries. As, an illustration in the United States of America, the industries have been isolated from residential places which reduces the amount of smoke, pollution, as they are affecting the trees, that has caused a reduction in the amount of rain.

On the other hand

, the heat of the earth

also

started to rise, by coining a term Global Warming.

Although

, rural areas have a lot of agricultural land, even the urban cities tend to have a half of them. But to manage the increasing growth of people, all those lands have to be demolished and constructed into apartments. Each and every individual, is more likely to have own vehicle and make their area over crowded. By doing so, there is an increase in the number of vehicles on the road, as the preference of the public transport has dropped,

this

also

raises the traffic rate. As, the traffic rate grows,

this

leads to congestion in the road, which

also

scales up the accident rates. Even after the accident takes place, there is no ambulance arriving at the right time,

this

is

also

due to

this

situation. As, an illustration, when my neighbour wanted to attend a reception in Nungambakkam, he got stuck in the hectic traffic, which left him in vain and out of anger he returned without attending the reception. The government can introduce the lane systems,

that is

country

, there is a separate lane for each and every vehicle, including heavy vehicle to the ambulance. In conclusion, overpopulation has created a lot of problems, ranging from the reduction of rainfall

accidents. The government should introduce many policies to overcome all
