UrbanizationSome Facts

3,200+ peopleMore than 3,200 people

die each day

by urban air pollution.

41Today, there are 28

megacities.

This number will

increase to 41 by 2030.

100%In average the commuting

time doubles during rush

hour in megacities.

65%Today, 65 percent of

all travel kilometers are

made in urban areas.

This number is about

to triple by 2050.

95%Today’s cars are parked

95% of the time. Only 5%

are in use.

P

80%Cities produce 80 percent of

the global greenhouse gas

emissions and consume 75

percent of the natural

resources.
