4. Relevance of Profession
Projections of urban population growth around the world tell
us that between 2000 and 2050 the amount of urban space
will need to be doubled in developed countries and
expanded by 326 per cent in developing countries to
accommodate people.
This is equivalent to building a city the size of Greater London
every month for the next 40 years.
