Population growth and suburban development are two intertwined phenomena that have shaped the landscape of human civilization over the years. As the global population continues to surge, the demand for housing, infrastructure, and resources has led to the expansion of suburban areas.

But, at what cost?

The urban sprawl exacerbates the issues within suburban areas and places additional strain on surrounding ecosystems. The delicate balance between urban and rural spaces becomes increasingly fragile as more land is developed for buildings and infrastructures, resulting in social and environmental challenges.
