Urban
Description
Cities were created as a result of trade developments. Housing, clean water, sanitization and transportation are all crucial to a functional city. Nowadays, the advantages of urban living are offset by high numbers of people living in a relatively small area. Pollution and poor sanitization are just two areas of concern. We review the effects of pollution on some of the world's most recognizable landmarks as well as the efforts undertaken by Government (such as 'congestion tax' in London) to combat urban living issues.
