As services generally pollute less than thở manufacturing, this aspect of urbanization is also beneficial to tướng the environment. 

     Second, for any given population, the high urban mật độ trùng lặp từ khóa is benign for the environment. The urban economics literature shows that compactness is a key determinant of energy use. High mật độ trùng lặp từ khóa can make public transport more viable and reduce the length of trips. Urban living encourages walking and cycling rather than thở driving. Third, environment-friendly infrastructure and public services such as piped water, sanitation, and waste management are much easier and more economical to tướng construct, maintain, and operate in an urban setting. Urbanization allows more people to tướng have access to tướng environment friendly facilities and services at affordable prices. 

     Fourth, urbanization drives innovation, including green technologies.

Green innovations in Asia's cities will be supported by the region's vast market as the billions of people who will be buying energy-efficient products will create opportunities and incentives for entrepreneurs to tướng invest in developing such products. Finally, the higher standard of living associated with urbanization provides people with better food, education, housing, and health care. Urban growth generates revenues that fund infrastructure projects, reducing congestion and improving public health. Urbanization fosters a pro-environment stance among property owners and the middle class, which is crucial for the introduction and enforcement of environmental laws and regulations. 

     Of course, urbanization also comes with costs. Millions of people are migrating to tướng Asian cities and companies are locating there to tướng employ them. Urban sprawl and industrial activities, such as power generation, transportation, construction, garbage and waste disposal, harm the environment. An assessment of the impact of urbanization on the environment must balance its benign and adverse effects.
