Impacts of Urbanization on Natural Infrastructure

Cities are being constructed over wetlands, lakes, forests, and grasslands more frequently. The ecosystem advantages that these natural infrastructures provided; such as flood control and microclimate control; are quickly dwindling.

The map of Bengaluru's Bellandur-Varthur neighborhood if observed can be identified the way the original blue-green features have changed significantly over time.

Urban India's water bodies and green cover have drastically changed in just 15 years and as a result of the change in natural infrastructure the intensity of vulnerability within the city area, has been largely affected. The publication "Urban Blue-Green Conundrum: A 10-City Study on the Impacts of Urbanization on Natural Infrastructure in India." was written by Goswami et.al. shows the impact of calamity on the wetlands.
