Land Use

018 - Land Use

In this video Paul Andersen explains how land is developed for human use. Urbanization has occurred through the last century as people have moved to cities in large numbers. Transportation and the arrival of the car have led to urban sprawl and urban blight. Smart growth can be used to mediate some of the ecosystem impacts. Land is also preserved in parks, refuges, and wilderness areas.

City planning with its permits has already thought out how they will proceed. Maybe you object to it. Vegas main problem is how much water to bring in to transform the desert, what this water and water infrastructure will support regulates the growth.

Sprawl is more of a consequence, it isn’t the problem. What causes people to move to the parameter of cities, something happening within it.

Just have everyone with a house and a yard plant trees mandatorily and don´t waste these yards for lawn only.

I love sprawl and my car, screw walkable neighborhoods

Paul Andersen reminds of an older Frank Frink (Man in The High Castle)

It’s funny because it’s actually common sense I think. But nonetheless hard to think of that isn’t it?

[rawstarmusic]

Sprawl isn't good interesting neighborhoods. It's not city and not country. It consumes lots of land for gardens in single houses and endless roads and sidwalks where you can't do anything. Everyone has to move to do anything other except sleep and sit in the house. They become as large as farming areas or countries. Often residents then don't want new city buildings so ever new land has to be used. We know about this now and should address it. There should be more land used to produce local food close to cities.
