What are the different environmental problems faced in urban areas?????

pollution

sound noise made by vehiclesWhat are the different environmental problems faced in urban areas?????Truly a lot of problems, but off-the-hat I can think of three: First of all, there is the smog caused by factories and automobiles. Just take a whiff of the air in Los Angeles and you'll know what I mean. Second, there is the volume of trash. Can you imagine how much waste -- recyclable and non-recyclable -- are generated in urban areas? Visit an urban waste disposal area and smell what it's truly like. Third, there is the sewerage problem. Waste is not confined to external ones but includes those generated by the human body as well, and the more humans there are the greater the waste. Failure to treat waste leads to epidemics and all other sorts of diseases.
