Many major cities are facing a housing crisis as they cannot provide enough land for new buildings. Some local governments believe the problem could be solved by reassigning park land for residential development, because this land would be better used for housing. Do you agree or disagree?

shortage, especially in urban areas. According to them,

this

is far from ideal since it could result in serious problems.

First

and foremost,

parks

, with plenty of trees, are perceived as green lungs of cities, which means that they play a vital role in air filtration and smog mitigation.

Therefore

, if they are turned into concrete building blocks, urban residents will have to suffer even heavier air pollution than currently. As a consequence, their health will be severely affected.

Thus

Moreover

scarcity, it cannot be a long-lasting solution. The reason is that more residential structures will attract more urban immigrants and
