it makes vehicles go vroom vroom but it is bad for environment because it releases carbon into the atmosphere and increases global warminf therefore we should use public transport
eg. new york, it is a city with a large population and since there is a lot of people there is a lot of car and a lot of car mean a lot of carbon emission a lot of carbon emissions means bad for the environment]]> 2023-02-02 02:27:09 UTC https://padlet.com/zhuangxy0927/s61e028x13o4subk/wish/2465487050 https://padlet.com/zhuangxy0927/s61e028x13o4subk/wish/2465487263 There is more competition for jobs with higher pays because a city has high population.

80% of the Eritrean people are not able to access basic drinking water and sanitation services in their country.

-The population is well educated about international affairs
-The literacy rate is high
-The arts and culture are well known among the people
-Does Seoul have good education?
The country has one of the world's highest-educated labor forces among OECD countries. South Korea is well known for its high standards about education, which has come to be called "education fever". The nation is consistently ranked amongst the top for global education.
-The education is advanced with much modern facilities


-However, the mental health of the population is not the best with 75% of elderly diagnosed with depression.
-May be caused by high competitiveness of the education system

Only forty-two percent of the population in Jakarta had access to piped water. Typically, poor families did not have access to affordable water and a larger percentage of their income was spent on water. Expanding service into poor neighborhoods would give affordable access to people who did not have it before.

However, if there is competition for water resources there would not be enough water for everyone and if there is no water land would run dry and no crops can grow.  In addition, people can lead to deadly diarrheal diseases, including cholera and typhoid fever, and other water-borne illnesses.

High population growth stressed the water and sanitation services that exist. 7 million Ugandans lack access to safe water and 28 million do not have access to improved sanitation facilities. Lack of clean drinkable water could lead to a multitude of halth issues which will increase the people that will fall sick and die.
