LIVING ON AN URBAN PLANET, Mohamad Solahudin bin Ibrahim (A20SC0141) …

- - - - The closeness reduces the cost of transporting goods, people and ideas
        
        Allows people to be more productive
    - - People also enable to learn from each other
  - - - City apartments also require less energy to heat, cool and light than houses in other areas
    - - There are things in cities that requires fewer resources to build and operate such as city roads, sewers, power line
        
        People in cities tend to drive less because they can walk and using public transportation
        
        By doing that it helps to produce fewer greenhouse gas emission per person
- - - - The major contributing factor for South Korea's Economic success was the large number of people who came to Seoul to work
      - The growing city paid for the buildings, roads, and other infrastructure that helped absorb even more people
- - - - This would make people less dependent on cars
        
        Edwaed Glaeser say if people are in dense cities built around the elevator rather than in sprawling areas built around the car
  - - - For example many people move from cities to suburban area that increased air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions
    - - For examaple, reserving land for parks and public transportation
        
        the Earth's population headed toward 9 or 10 bilion, with dense and carefully planned cities are looking more like a solution
        
        Perhaps the best hope for lifting people out of poverty without wrecking the planet
