Urban Explosion – describe what you see
Rapid urbanization may bring the urban poor more ill-health (World Development Report 2003 : The World Bank, 2002)
5
Sanitation and population growth
Even fewer people have access to adequate sanitation than safe water and the global provision of sanitation is not keeping up with population growth. Between 1990 and 2000 the number of people without adequate sanitation rose from 2.6 billion to 3.3billion. With squatter settlements in many parts of the world’s poorest cities expanding rapidly the situation is likely to deteriorate.
