Rapid urbanisation is one of the many factors contributing to the current threat to our planet, and around 55 per cent of the world’s population currently lives in cities, a figure which is set to rise to 68 per cent by 2050, according to a 2018 report by the UN’s Department of Economic and Social Affairs. And while these cities are incredible hubs of creativity, innovation and diversity, there is a myriad of issues associated with urban living.
