Urbanization : A journey from Hut to Bungalow

The history of settlement conveys how far the humans have

advanced. In the ancient times the humans for ‘shed’, used caves then they
evolved up gradually and made thatch huts & now we are living in
Bungalows. Humans are social animals, thus resulting in a series of
structures called cities. ”Urbanization”, thus is a development of human
settlement.

The earth is the only planet to sustain life, to which human

beings are the masters. We in search of comfort had exploited resources,
form the very beginning, so humans started cutting off forests for the
cultivation & shelter and now it had become a serious problem for the
mankind since it results to the major threats like Global warming, Ozone
layer depletion, Acid rain etc. This has also led to the loss of Bio diversity,
many species are extinct & many at the verge of extinction, due to lack of
their original habitat.

Urbanization has shown record growth in recent years, due to

increasing population, people find it suitable to migrate to towns and cities
from their villages in order to get comfortable life and increasing facilities
there like education, employment, power supply, high status of living etc.

It has been good to humans but it has serious consequences too,

so in order to compensate with the environment and other species, the
humans need to develop in an eco friendly manner and overcome these
problems. No doubt humans are taking their best efforts and trying out the
possible moves like efficiently planning of towns and cities which includes
maximum greenery and utilization of maximum land area, management of
resources, conservation of water with implementation of technique of rain
water harvesting and ground water recharge, new techniques of
agriculture using developed seeds thus enhancing production and
retaining the fertility & minerals of soil, conservation of forests and
protecting the wild life by providing them their natural habitat etc. thus, it
is a serious issue of each and every person of the world therefore every
individual must help implementing the moves to overcome this problem
and help the mankind in developing with a balanced ecological
sustainance and nature.
