Urban sprawl, characterized by the unchecked expansion of cities, presents a myriad of challenges impacting communities and the environment. It degrades natural habitats, strains infrastructure, and fosters unsustainable transportation patterns. To tackle these issues, cities can implement policies promoting compact, mixed-use development, prioritize green spaces, and invest in robust public transportation systems. By adopting a proactive approach to urban planning, cities can navigate the complexities of sprawl and pave the way for more sustainable, livable urban environments.
