Question

How is urbanization responsible for the destruction of the ecosystem?

Short Answer

Solution

Urbanization is defined as a rise in population and industrialization within a settlement, which has a considerable environmental impact. Cities spread into natural environments, resulting in biodiversity loss and pollution. Urbanization contributes to problems such as land degradation, water pollution, air pollution, and increasing waste generation, all of which impair the natural environment and disrupt the ecological balance.
