Environmentalists are concerned about the growth of megacities around the world

Экологи обеспокоены ростом мегаполисов по всему миру Scientific experts expressed their concern about the growth of megacities around the world.

Scientists report that the rapid growth of large cities has a negative effect on the environment.

Earlier, the authorities of large cities used a special formula of Sprawl, which allowed them to correctly determine the correct ratio of vehicles per square kilometre. This formula helped achieve a low density. However, the scientific experts noted that to date, this method cannot be called perfect, because modern people give preference to private cars, whose number is steadily growing.

The researchers analyzed indicators of the 13 largest cities in the world and determined that about 70% of the population have at least one car per family, but there are those in which one vehicle is necessary for each family member.

Experts are concerned that by 2050 will increase from 30% to 70% of new residents of cities, but the natives will take in a smaller portion.
