Because they have limited financial resources and the cost of food is higher in cities, the urban poor lack nutritious diets and this leads to illness, which contributes to loss of appetite and poor absorption of nutrients among those affected. Furthermore, environmental contamination also contributes to under nutrition; street food is often prepared in unhygienic conditions, leading to outbreaks of food-borne illnesses (e.g., botulism, salmonella, and shigellosis). Urban dwellers also suffer from over nutrition and obesity, a growing global public health problem. Obesity and other lifestyle conditions contribute to chronic diseases (such as cancers, diabetes, and heart diseases). Although obesity is most common among the wealthy, international agencies have noted the emergence of increased weight among the middle class and poor in recent years ]]> 2020-12-09 16:12:44 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1002776317 noah_antony https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1002867109 Urban sprawl refers to the expansion of poorly planned, low-density, auto-dependent development, which spreads out over large amounts of land, putting long distances between homes, stores, and work and creating a high segregation between residential and commercial uses with harmful impacts on the people living in these areas and the ecosystems and wildlife that have been displaced. Although some would argue that urban sprawl has its benefits, such as creating local economic growth, urban sprawl has many negative consequences for residents and the environment, such as higher water and air pollution, increased traffic fatalities and jams, loss of agricultural capacity, increased car dependency, higher taxes, increased runoff into rivers and lakes, decrease in social capital and loss of natural habitats, wildlife and open space. In its path, urban sprawl consumes immeasurable acres of forests, farmland, woodlands and wetlands and in its wake, leaves vacant storefronts, boarded up houses, closed businesses, abandoned and usually contaminated industrial sites, and traffic congestion, which can stretch miles from urban centers and is creating a hidden debt of unfunded infrastructure and services, urban decay, social dysfunction, and environmental degradation.]]> 2020-12-09 16:30:39 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1002867109 noah_antony https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1002905916 https://youtu.be/4zEnmmEyr-c]]> 2020-12-09 16:37:59 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1002905916 noah_antony https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1018017682 The risks of climate change and pandemics escalate among the most vulnerable people, who, particularly in developing countries, often live in crowded quarters and informal settlements. Conditions tend to be unhygienic, with little or no running water, and lack usable public spaces.

It is hardly surprising that over 95% of COVID-19 cases are in urban areas. Cities are, therefore, where the twin battle against the virus and climate change must be fought and won. Governments and institutions around the world have courageously agreed on trillion-dollar recovery strategies to meet the COVID-19 crisis. To make a real difference, this enormous amount of money must be spent wisely. Beyond investing in immediate public health, job creation, and livelihood support, there is an important window of opportunity to use funds to move toward smarter, more sustainable cities.]]> 2020-12-14 21:37:38 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1018017682 noah_antony https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1018027669 2020-12-14 21:41:33 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1018027669 noah_antony https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1018937967 2020-12-15 06:10:35 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1018937967 noah_antony https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1018943087 within this injustice i believe that pathos is the most used and common rhetorical appeal. ]]> 2020-12-15 06:14:07 UTC https://padlet.com/noah_antony/ppbmuncqb69td5pq/wish/1018943087
