About Urbanization

As urbanization problem become more serious, there are a lot of issue that was been made out, as soon as more and more people were came in to a city, as a result, there will be a lot of traffic, a lot of garbage, a lot of population were brought in by the way, but what I am consider about is the flooding problem.

When more people move into city, more energy were came with their owner, so this will cause the average temperature going to rise. We have study that rising temperature will cause the particle in the object gain more energy to move faster, so it will evaporate faster, when the rate of water particles evaporate in the city area increase, by using the cloud forming process’ knowledge that we have study in the Geography class this will also increase the speed that it made cloud, when a cloud is form, this will also leads more rain. When the drops reach the point of the river level and the city cannot quickly lower its level, a flood is happened.

This is only one cause of the flood, there are various of factor can affect flooding, but urbanization is a phenomenon that all of us can’t avoid because it can increase the economic growth, thus, what we are going to do is to try to prevent the flooding problem. Because when there is a flood, there will bring us a unbelievable amount of economic lost.

A way can try to avoid is to have a good organization of drainage system at the first beginning we arrange our city. For example, when there is a raining day, my school will really look like a pool, only because the drainage system is really bad, and this affect the efficient we study. However, it is not a easy and impossible job to change the drainage system of the city at the moment, because most of the city is already completely arrange.

Although we can’t solve this problem by change the drainage system, we can solve this from the cause of it. Because it can be cause by the rising temperature, we can decrease it. As we know, when the engine was started on, it will rise the temperature, so if we can have a regulation to on the vehicles, and we can decrease the problem.

    Hi, I am Dongyuan Li. It is very smart that you connect urbanization with flood problem. People always think about population problem when we talked about urbanization, however, forget the indirect problem it leads to. Many development countries in the world are under the process of urbanization and the population of these countries are pretty large. Urbanization is a good sign, but urbanists need to predict the problem it may follow. Even some developed countries donot come up with good idea on to solve it. The drainage well in some cities are two small. When it is raining some people will remove it, however, it is extremely dangerous for pedestrians.
