What is a city? Answers…….

Are some cities more crowded than others?

Population Density

Comparisons – by country

By City

Q Do you think that more people live in the city or in the country side? Think/Pair/Share

Our Class Statistics

World Statistics 1800’s – 5% lived in the city 2000 – 47% lived in the city By 2030 the UN expects that 65% will live in cities

Vocabulary Rural – Characteristic of farming or country life Urban – Characteristic of city life

Q Why do you think people move from Rural to Urban settings? Think/Pair/Share

Vocabulary Urbanization - becoming urbanized, or becoming more urban.

Urbanization Urbanization has been characterized as the movement of people away from a rural life towards an urban life.

Q Turn to page 208 When did the trend for Urbanization in Western Europe begin?

Q See page 208, 209 What factors helped with the growth of Urbanization?

Push Pull Factors Push Pull

Vocabulary Sanitation – the removal of garbage and sewage Infrastructure – the basic structures or features of a city such as roads, buildings, water, sewer, electricity Influx – the process of flowing in

Environmental Impact #1 The infrastructure of cities was not ready for the influx of people. One of the biggest problems was dirtiness and sanitation The increase of garbage and sewage problems was the first major environmental impact

Problems with sanitation and health were improved. Building practices were improved so they could house more people downtown Now cities could handle the people

Q Look at page 209 What are the two biggest reasons for people to move to the cities?

Vocabulary Employment –being employed or having a job Amenities – the things that make you comfortable and are convenient, things that make a place desirable to live.

Increase in people……increase on resources

Q What are the basic things that people use?

The more we use, the more we……..

Environmental Impact #2 The larger that cities grew, the more they polluted. Personal pollution like household garbage and vehicle pollution. Industrial pollution from factories, solids, liquids and gases. Noise pollution as well as light pollution at night.

Growth The better they got, the bigger they got

Q Where are successful cities cited (built)? Think/Pair/Share

Vocabulary Arable Land – land that is suitable for farming Intensive – a high level of input Nutrients – substances that are necessary to help plants and animals grow Sustainable – the ability to keep going

Environmental Impact #3 As cities grow they grow over the arable land that once supported so many people. If cities continue to grow outwards, they will take up all of the arable land that people once needed.

Environmental Impact #3 Now they have to grow food on land that is not as rich in nutrients which means that you need more land to grow the same amount of food. We see this as a direct relationship.

Environmental Impact #3 Current agricultural allow people to use more intensive farming practices using more chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and water to try and grow more food on poor land. Intensive farming is unsustainable.

Should we stay or Should we go? You and a partner list the positive reasons for being in a city, and the negative reasons for being in a city
