4. Types of Land Uses What colour was most prominent on the previous slide? The land uses do not all appear evenly.

5. Types of Land Uses Specific land uses can be incredibly varied. In Canada, harsh climates have led to indoor shopping malls being built. And at that, those indoor malls have taken on extraordinary shapes and sizes!

6. Types of Land Uses As cities grow, they expand onto surrounding rural land, contributing to the loss of productive farmland and natural habitats.

7. Types of Land Uses The Golden Horseshoe Greenbelt has been established to protect land from urban development in southern Ontario.
