However, by this taking place there has been a huge increase in transport congestion, as seen on 16th of February 1980. Due to poor weather and the huge numbers of cars on the French Auto route, the jam spread from Lyon to Paris, it stretched 109 miles. This is highly unsustainable as stationary cars, increase chances on photochemical smog’s, such that in London a smog event occurred in December, 1952
Also more food is required so more intensive farming methods are used. Transport system Transport systems can have many bad effects on the environment, one of them being exhaust emissions, the more populated area the higher the emissions. Also when a car for example breaks and has to be scraped if parts of the car are not properly disposed of like the oil and battery it can cause lots of damage to air pollution and the environment. Also Transport infrastructure (such as roads or parking spaces) covers 25-30 per cent of land in most
The industrialization of Manchester was successful for the modernization of man, yet its growth also raised many concerns in society. The health issues were one of the major problems raised from the growth of Manchester, since the spread of disease throughout the city was extremely common as presented in Document 6, “The annual loss of life from filth and bad ventilation is greater than the loss from death in modern wars”. This shows how the rapid growth of Manchester created unsafe areas that easily allowed illness’s to be spread. Also, the physical conditions in the factories caused many problems for the workers’ health. A French women’s rights advocate, Flora Tristan, said that in the factories, “They (the workers) are all wizened, sickly and emaciated, their bodies thin and frail, their limbs feeble, their complexions pale, their eyes dead… O God!
Manchester DBQ Throughout history, major revolutions have created conflicts in modernizing cities by rapid population growth and other contributors. Over the course of the nineteenth century, the growth of Manchester raised concerns about its suffering population and the unclean city, but it also spread increasing industry across Europe; all of which gained reactions of pity, rage, and prosperity. Manchester’s population suffered both from poor labor conditions and lack of rights, which drove them to pursue what they deserve with rage. An uncleanly city created a rampant increase in disease and poverty in Manchester bringing a need of peed. Although Manchester grew in poverty and wrath, the fruits of its industry continued to bring prosperity to the wealthy both in the city and around the globe.
* Begging and drinking alcohol in public. * Dumping rubbish in the streets, abounding cars. * Vandalism including fly tipping and graffiti. Public perception of crime The types of behaviour identified above can be make the public very fearful of crime and disorder in a public environment, and give the perception that crime is everywhere and that we should fear crime. In most cases our fear of crime is much higher that the likelihood of us actually being a victim of crime.
With growing competition among private companies, there was a significant growth in the number of factories in China. This also led to toxic-coal-waste, which is the “largest source of industrial waste” in China (Doc. 7). Because of China’s increasing energy demand due to a rising production in cars and air conditioners, it “is turning into the world’s biggest energy consumer” (Doc. 6).
Introduction The events of September 11th 2001 have cause a major alteration in the world. After 9/11 many countries throughout the world have increased security in airports and country borders, and increased security in main areas of major cities. The biggest consequence of 9/11 however was the USA’s war on terror. The war on terror was started with the objective of recognizing, finding and destroying terrorists, denying sponsorships to terrorist organizations and defending people all over the world from future terrorist attacks. However, the USA’s war on terror has had a negative effect on many countries in the world as well as their own, and their citizens by creating animosity in the international community, causing a downturn in their own economy and their major allies, and ruining their international reputation.
The Valley is particularly vulnerable to air pollution formation because of its topography, climate, and growing population. Surrounding mountains trap just about anything near the Valley floor where people live and breathe. The Valleys increasing population growth has caused the San Joaquin Valley to rank with Los Angeles and Houston in most measures of air pollution. In addition, the Valley’s hot, summer temperatures, transform car exhaust, manure gases and other emissions into a smoggy
In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, looting, violence and other criminal activity became serious problems. The rescue efforts, had most of the attention of the police, causing the security to weaken (Hurricane Katrina, 2010). There was a concern that the constant flooding would lead to health problems. In addition to dehydration and food poisoning, there was also potential of the spread of various infections and disease. All related to the growing contamination of food and drinking water supplies in the city in combination with the city’s heat and humidity
With this many people entering the United States the possibilities of finding the main source is endless. The U.S has many drug prevention programs which are costing the citizens of the country a lot of money in tax dollars. From 1990 to 2000 the drug control budget in the United States has increased from $9.7 billion (1990) to $17.7 billion (2000) that’s a lot of tax payer dollars. (Greenhaven Press, 2001) within the last twenty years the estimated amount of drug user have tripled if not quadrupled in the U.S despite the increase of law enforcements and government programs including the National Drug Control Strategy set forth in 1989. With the lowering of transportation prices in the trade policy the transnational movements of goods,
