One of the consequences of housing shortage is that some people may become homeless. This is due to lack of shelter because there are no houses for them to live in. This people usually suffer everyday as they struggle to find food for themselves, cope with the weather and to find basic services is a very big challenge for them. I think that if other countries does what Singapore does which is having a law that everyone has to live in a house, the number of homeless people will decrease. If they don´t have the money, they can borrow from the bank and slowly pay back. Their houses also can be rented and it does not really need to be a big house for them; as long as they have shelter and basic services. If the country really is having a huge housing shortage problem, why not sending those people who are homeless to another country temporarily so that they can find a living there and live in a safer condition.

One of the reason that people become homeless is because they do not have jobs hence they do not have money to buy house or to even rent a house for shelter .One of the reasons for not having jobs is because such people are uneducated and are coming from very poor family where there family cannot afford the cost of education.

One of the few things that people suffer from housing shortage is that there would be lack of safe shelter.When people are without shelter,they are not protected from bad weather such as strong winds and low temperatures

The houses in slums and squatter settlements have weak foundation.They have unstable walls and roofs made of poor quality materials like zinc and cardboard.Such houses collapse easily during a natural disaster,such as flood or earthquake.Most of the construction materials are flammable and this increases the risk of fires in slums.

These houses are usually built on unsuitable sites such as low-lying areas or steep slopes.These areas are more prone to floods and landslides.

These houses in slums are built in a dense and disorderly manner that when earthquake occurs,the residents cannot/difficulties to escape easily.

One of the consequences of housing shortages is that many people would be homeless who would have lack of shelter and low level of health due to poor living conditions. There would be also be more slums and squatters that homeless people build illegally.

One solution to this problem is to give them money so they would be able to buy food or giving them food for themselves and  give them a place to live in.

One of the consequences of housing shortage is that there would be more slums and squatters( people who occupy a plot of land illegally)  and these people will experience a lot of environmental pollution. Some of these environmental pollution are water pollution by drinking the water, they ingest the chemicals that have been poured into the ocean by factories. and they also would have  land pollution where they have a lack of space to place their garbage and thus the area would be flooded with garbage.It is easier for people in the slums to get a lot of illness as the area they live in is not hygenic so they would  have a lower level of health. IN these slums it is also very vulnerable to natural disasters like flooding and are also vulnerable to fire.

One solution to this problem is that the government can spend their money on building high rise houses for these people in the slums so that they would have a better quality of life and a higher level of health. The government can also spend money on the healthcare for these people to treat their illnesses they had from the slums so they can live comfortably.

in slumps the people over there do not have excess to supply of water food and basic needs.This may cause them to get diseases

A solution for this is that they should  at least help to fund those people so that they will not be left out amongst the rest

One of the consequences of housing shortage is that the number of homeless people is increasing.Homeless people tend to live on the footbridge or beside the street due to the shortage of proper shelters.There is a lacking of hygiene(proper sanitation),basic needs like clean water and poor living conditions.

In order to solve this problem,I think that the government could build areas of housings for homeless people and collecting a small amount of rental fees from them so that at least the numbers of homeless people would decrease even by a little.

Of the consequences of housing shortages, especially where the climate is tropical, would be a rise in diseases and illnesses spread by mosquitos, as there would be a severe lack of hygiene,as there is no basic living needs a person can rely on,lack of acces to clean water, no proper toilets.

A solution to housing shortages may be to just build high rise buildings rather than single houses as this can greately increase the amount of houses available for people to access, which means more people getting basic needs and would have better hygiene, which can ultimately reduce the spread of illnesses and diseases

1.One of the consequences of housing shortage is that it can have a negative impact on a person health due to lack of hygiene such as not bathing or even bathing with river water. People can also suffer from a poor health due to exposure to the cold,rain,hunger and lack of sleep and this is all due to the environment that they are living in.

3.This can be solved by building more houses like high rise buildings as it can save space and people can have a healthy environment and healthy life. It also can be solve by giving them proper checkup to know what diseases they have and how to cure them this way the people can be healthy.

One of the consequences of housing shortage is that there is slums and squatter settlements.This means that people living there suffer negative consequences due to their poor living environments

This can be solved by allowing councils the funds to maintain their properties which means councils must be allowed sufficient funds to adequately maintain and mordenise their homes.

(1) One of the consequences of  housing shortage is that there would be a lack of hygiene in the slums. Due to people not having the proper materials to build a shelter, they often use recycled material and/or rubbish which has been collected and accumulating alot of bacteria and dust over the long period of time which would then make the residents fall ill. The settlement would be less developed, thus fresh water, electricity and edible food might not be available. Also the houses may be made out of scraps of wood, loose plastic and/or loose cardboard which might not stable enough the withstand harsh weather conditions. This could cause the entire area to be hazardous towards the inhabitants and public as it may collapse anytime.

(2)

(3) One solution to reducing housing shortage is to build houses with much more stable structure and materials so that it would not be easy for the house to collapse. They could also build the houses vertically instead of horizontally so as to ensure that there would not be land scarcity. Residents should also be educated about hygiene.

# data[].attributes.body
One of the consequences of housing shortage is that many will become homeless, which means that people do not have basic sanitary services and clean water, or lack of safe shelters. For example, using recycled materials to build their shelters,these shelters are not stable and can be easily destroyed by nature disasters .  Due to the environment that they lived at is unsecured and dirty. People (who lives in the slums) may get sick and also die easily.
We can solve those problems by reserving some low prices or free departments for the homeless and provide foods for the homeless every 3 days a week .

# data[].attributes.body
One of the consequences of housing shortage is the lack of shelter in which to sleep/carry out basic activities. We can solve this consequence by helping to build a home for these homeless people and also provide food for them. Another consequence is the exposure to terrible weather conditions and lack of sleep,  which lead to the suffering from poor health and eventually, death. We can also solve this problem by providing them with homes and food

# data[].attributes.body
One of the consequences of housing shortage is that there will have an increase of slums and squatter settlements. This will lead to bad hygiene and condition as the slums are not build by the government. Hence, there is no access to potable water, electricity or even sanitary services. Besides, there will also have an overcrowded condition as many people do not have a shelter to love in so that they will just go an build their own.

1.One of the consequences is that people become homeless. This means they have a lack of shelter which means that they are exposed to many health issues and diseases. They will normally face starvation, lack of sleep ,rain and skin cancer due to exposure to sun for too long. A method of solving homelessness is by building more high rise buildings as it will not take up as much space thus, giving more housing to the poor

# data[].attributes.body
1.One consequence of housing shortage is that many people would be homeless.They would not have any homes to live in and end up living at the streets.They would not have any protection from the sun or rain resulting in their health being affected.They would also get sick easily because of their living conditions and the bacteria all around them.
3.One soution is to build more houses for people.They can also improve on their housing conditions such as using better and stronger materials.They can use materials like concrete so that it would not collapse during any accidents.

1. One consequence is that they become homeless. WIthout the shelter they have no protection in rain and sun. Thus they become easily sick because these people often suffer from poor health because of exposure to the cold or rain,hunger and lack of sleep.
2.Another consequence leads to slums and squatter settlements.People living in slums and squatter settlements suffer negative consequences due to their poor living environments.
3.Build houses upwards to create more houses for people to live in and reduces space needed to build houses.

# data[].attributes.body
1.One of the consequences is that people will face a high risk of injuries or deaths because most of the building they live have weak foundation.The buildings are also made of poor quality materials such as wood planks and dry leaves which may collapse easily.For example,fires are common occurrences in slum as the buildings' materials are flammable which increase the risk of fire .Therefore,housing shortage can cause the risk of deaths.
3.We can try to improve conditions in slum areas by improving the quality of housing.For example，the material of the houses should be change into concrete or other stronger material to avoid collapse of houses and fire.

1.One of the consequences of housing shortage is that they will have low level of health due to having to live in poor conditions. As people without houses will live in slums which are undeveloped and extremely polluted due to not having a proper waster treatment. From all the trash there pest will start to gather who then will also start spreading diseases and also bacteria will also form under such environment. Which causes whoever that lives there vulnerable to all the disease around them especially kids with lower immunity will likely to be dying due to getting sick.
3.One way to solve this issue is to start from the beginning and let them have a proper wastage treatment system going on where they will have a proper place to dispose their trash and also have public cleaners who will help to clean up the litter. But people there might still get sick due to the weather so there can also be tents with trained nurses and doctors who will be the first source to treat their medical problems which are funded through donations making it so that the people living in slums will not have to pay as they are already poor.

Reasons for housing shortage
1. There is a lack of shelter as the demand of shelter in the place is high and the population density is high but the amount of houses and land is low
3.A way to solve this is to reduce the amount of space use for leisure and instead change the place and build a high raise building that can shelter many homeless that way although there are lesser place to get their things there are more sheltered people that can live normally.

# data[].attributes.body
1. there will be lack of shelter for the people living on the street or without a house.there will also be lack of daily uses such as food and drinks hence they might pass on due to starvation or dehydration.
2.
3. the village should build an amount of houses or shelter for the people in the city and also they should either provide them with daily uses for donationtion.

# data[].attributes.body
1.There will be a lack of shelter for families and children that lives in villages and they would need to sleep outdoors and  might sleep nearby the roads .

3. The village should only build the amount of houses needed for the families so that it would not take up too much space and leave out the other familes

1. One of the consequences of housing shortage is due to environmental pollution. Pollution is cause or used by the disposal of garbage, washing of clothes and sewage disposal. The results in land pollution is most likely caused by garbage pollution as they are lack of garbage disposal system that caused by dumping garbage into open drains and areas outside the houses. In addition, for water pollution is also caused by washing, garbage and sewage disposal thus, it can be seen that rivers are polluted by it.
3. We can suggest of helping their lacking of garbage disposal system better. Example, providing rubbish bins around the neighbourhood, malls, pathways and etc. Thus, lesser garbage disposal will be reduced.

- One consequence of housing shortage is that the government is fighting with locals for land use. However because the government are the ones who are of a 'higher-level' people do not dare to oppose them and such their land for housing is given up for places such as shops or corporate buildings or healthcare. Yes it does help the people with opening more job opportunities and  healthcare is almost certified, however the most basic of fundamentals is housing. Without housing, people do not have a proper roof to stay under. They risk their belongings however, there is much doubt that they have much anyways. Its not safe for both them and the other people. They have to drink and eat whatever they can get, which most of the times are used, half-eaten, rotten and filled with maggots. The water is unclean and unfiltered sometimes even still with the remains of other people's fecal matter. Men, woman, old and young, people of all ages have to suffer while the government does what they want, thinking about the materialistic needs of others but not the physical consequences of what happens after the housings are destroyed. And destroying the straw houses of others only prompts them to make more.
- One way to solve this is instead of making more buildings and healthcare places, the government can look into make more steady and better housing for people. Just think about it, if billionars all over the world can easily spends millions just for the restoration of the Notre Dame, they can just as easily donate millions for the society of homelessness and help the homeless people. But why are they not helping? Because it is not of a big enough issue to get them to be bothered about!
