Mijn cijfer: 8,7. Dit argumentative essay is gemaakt voor het vak Trends&English tijdens het tweede jaar van de opleiding Communicatie aan de Hogeschool van Amsterdam. Het onderwerp van het essay is urbanization, maar het valt ook goed als leidraad te gebruiken voor andere onderwerpen.
As of the 21st century, more than half of the world's population lives in urban areas. Cities have become a
significant part of the international economy, attracting people from far and wide. Every 16 months, a city's
population crosses the ten million threshold, turning it into a mega-city. The enormous scale of these cities puts
immense pressure on infrastructure, waste management and housing affordability. Urbanization, as a result,
creates challenges for a more livable urban environment. A smart city is a solution that can effectively leverage
technology and out-of-the-box thinking to tackle these challenges and achieve a more habitable environment.
