Global Sprawl Everything Human Beings Do Not Need

GLOBAL SPRAWL PDF SOURCE
"Urban sprawl, a trend long associated with North American cities, is fast engulfing many developing countries where real estate developers are pushing a “world class lifestyle”. In many developing countries, urban sprawl comprises two main, contrasting types of development in the same city: one is characterized by large peri-urban areas with informal and illegal patterns of land use. This is combined with a lack of infrastructure, public facilities and basic services, and often is accompanied by little or no public transport and by inadequate access roads. The other is a form of “suburban sprawl” in which residential zones for high- and middle-income groups and  highly-valued commercial and retail complexes are well-connected by individual rather than public transport."
