In many places, new homes are needed, but the only space available for building them is in the countryside. Some people believe it is more important to protect the countryside and not build new homes there. What is your opinion?

To solve the growing housing problem, societies are being built on the outskirts of large cities. Many people are against
this
destruction of the countryside. While
this
is essential to accommodate the influx of people in the city, it may
also
create environmental issues.
This
essay shall cover why it is necessary to build homes away from the main cities.
Firstly
, replacing trees with concrete
bars
installation from which a military force initiates operations
base
will give rise to environmental hazards. As pollution levels increase across major cities,
this
greenbelt helps control it.
For example
, Lahore these days is facing worst smog of all times. One of the main reasons behind
this
is that all adjacent areas which earlier had different types of plants have homes built upon them. Had the forests still been there, the situation would have been less difficult.
Secondly
,
this
also
disturbs the natural ecosystem. When one tree is killed, many insects that feed on it and large animals that feed on the insect are harmed.
Moreover
, a number of insects and animals are killed directly through
this
destruction. An example of
this
is, around Mexico City after the plants were uprooted, the insect which pollinated vanilla plants became rare in numbers. The country is now facing issues with cultivation of their famous vanilla seeds. In conclusion, it is necessary to construct homes for everyone,
however
risking lives of humans by creating environmental issues and other living organisms by destroying their homes is not favourable. An alternate could be to build smaller homes and high rise buildings within urban areas.
