A country’s population is never fixed. The reasons population numbers fluctuate include natural growth, migration and demographic changes. In addition to this, the spatial distribution of the country’s population changes are mostly influenced by personal preferences, life stages, the environment and the economy.]]> 2018-08-12 07:47:06 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272745518 kimberley_hyland https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272745917 2018-08-12 08:02:41 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272745917 kimberley_hyland https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272745999 2018-08-12 08:05:14 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272745999 kimberley_hyland https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272746098 2018-08-12 08:08:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272746098 kimberley_hyland https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272746244 A large majority of migration occurs within cities, often driven by housing and accessibility circumstances. E.g, most of the migration to outer suburbs between 2001 and 2006 has been intracity migration. Yet while these changes may be greater in number, important variations in inter regional flows are shaping the spatial population pattern of the nation.]]> 2018-08-12 08:11:39 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272746244 kimberley_hyland https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272746504 2018-08-12 08:20:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272746504 kimberley_hyland https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272747050 A major factor to change in the distribution of Australia's population is migration. During 2009-2010, 331,400 people moved from one state or territory to another. This is an 8% drop from the same time one year earlier (359,900).]]> 2018-08-12 08:35:52 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272747050 kimberley_hyland https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272747297 Urbanisation has erupted many environmental related issues. The population moves from rural country areas such as Taradale to urban areas like Sydney The main cause of urbanisation is an array of things including climate, job opportunities, land use, convenience of being so close to people and shops and perception of liveability. ]]> 2018-08-12 08:42:29 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272747297 kimberley_hyland https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272988639 2018-08-14 03:50:56 UTC https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272988639 kimberley_hyland https://padlet.com/kimberley_hyland/ecskfrbh46jm/wish/272988724 Urbanization is very common in developing places, as more and more people have the tendency of moving closer to towns and cities to obtain more privileged social and economic services.

• Rapid urban growth can lead to increased poverty, with local governments unable to provide services for everyone.
• Constant energy use results in more air pollution with a a large impact on human health
• Car exhaust produces an increased amount of lead in the atmosphere 
• Large volumes of unsorted waste creates several health hazards
• Urban development can magnify the risk of environmental hazards such as flash flooding.
• Animal populations are restricted by toxic substances, vehicles, and the loss of habitat and food sources.

• prevent poverty by promoting economic development and certain jobs
• Lessen air pollution by upgrading energy use and alternative transport systems
• Create public organisations to provide services such as waste disposal and housing.
• Plant trees and care about city green spaces, because it's a key element in urban planning.
