#people #countrysie #city
Urbanisation is an increasing issue in many countries as a large number of
people
 are moving into urban areas from the countryside. In
this
 essay, I will explore the problems and possible solutions connected with
this
 issue. I will discuss how
this
 growing trend is leaving rural areas without a workforce and
secondly
 I will consider how more
people
 living in
cities
 has led to increased pollution. A major issue related to
this
 topic is that as
people
 move away from rural areas and the countryside, there is a lack of able workers in these places. Even though many large businesses are located in
cities
, countryside communities still need
people
 able to work in shops and other community buildings. A possible solution to
this
 would be to ensure that many companies and employers stay in villages and small towns. A possible result of
this
 type of action would be that
people
 (especially younger workers) may decide to remain in rural settings. Another problem connected to growing populations in
cities
 is a large rise in pollution and worsening air quality. Even though many
people
 are able to work and earn good money in
cities
, they may become sick due to smoke and poor air to breathe. Considering a solution to
this
 problem, governments should take action and ensure the city environment is clean and citizens are not becoming ill. A result of
this
 would be that even if
people
 are moving to the
cities
, they would not suffer from
ill health
Add a hyphen
ill-health
show examples
. In conclusion, there are many problems associated with urbanization but I feel there are many plausible solutions, too.
