The significance of parks and other public places is increasing as our world becomes increasingly urbanized; by the middle of the century, it is predicted that around 75 percent of us will reside in cities.

Clean water, pollutant-free air, renewable energy, mass transit, environmentally responsible solid waste management, and open space are essential components of sustainable communities. Additionally, they must guarantee that everyone has access to the excitement that drives people into big, vibrant communities. Water fees, energy bills, transportation tolls, and other sources of income are among the many revenue streams that come along with sustainable infrastructure. By the way, we are seeing more public spaces developed and maintained through public-private partnerships.

The threat that people would forget why it is important to protect environment grows as more people move into cities. If individuals do not have direct contact with nature, they may forget how dependent we are on ecosystems for things like food, water, air, and many other tangible goods.
