( MY TOPIC IS SUBURBANIZATION )
Here is also a little paragraph explaining Suburbanization: The implementation of suburbanization in areas such as the United States has shown a huge significant loss of green space. Suburbanization is how urban areas expand and change. This happens when urban populations increase, incomes rise, transportation technology improves, and jobs decentralize. Losing green space through suburbanization is replacing a green land feature with a man made land feature due to the creation of housing and such to shift population. With population increasing in green space areas, this does not only occupy the area but harm the healthy, eco-friendly environment that surrounds it.Topic must have a global perspective. Cannot focus on the U.S. only.
