Using complete sentences, analyze two ways the built environment of a city influences the natural environment.

There are many ways through which the built environment of a city influences the natural environment.

The first one can be how the smoke from factories are the leading factor in causing global warming and are adding up to the air pollution.

Another factor is that to create the built environments, trees have to be cut down and that causes eroding and not only that, It also harms the habitat of animal.

The buildings and structures of a city can influence both climate and water availability. For example, large areas of concrete in cities such as Phoenix, Arizona, tend to create “heat islands,” where the daytime temperature can be 10 degrees warmer than surrounding areas. In addition, large areas of concrete prevent water from percolating into the soil and divert it to areas of high runoff during heavy rainstorms. Built environments also displace native species of plants and animals that were living in the area.
