SDG 3 SDG 9 SDG 11 SDG 13 SDG 15

Over the centuries many cities have risen and fallen due to various factors such as war, plagues and even lack of trees. Tress act as a filter for many things purifying the air, mitigating the effects of soil erosion, acting as an absorbent for the harsh sun rays and even filtering the cities irrigation system.

It is important to the growth of cities to maintain their natural trees and plant other within parks for example as the benefits of keeping the trees are immensely valuable.

Urbanization should take into account the biodiversity and need for trees when expanding and building of cities as it may just be the reason the city thrives or collapses.
