Property rights. The rapid growth of cities has led to government transfers of rural land to urban and industrial uses. Inadequate compensation to farmers whose property rights have been poorly defined has fueled growing civil unrest, while urban leaseholders seek to strengthen their new property rights.
Property tax implementation. Recent tax reform has reduced local government revenues and prompted local officials to rely on land sales receipts, fees, and off-budget revenues to finance government expenditures. China’s government is seeking to implement a property tax as a local revenue source to take advantage of the rapid growth of the real estate market.
Farmland preservation. The large amount of land removed from agricultural production by the complex forces of urbanization has exacerbated concerns about farmland preservation, especially related to food security.
Urban planning and development. Rapid urbanization has also resulted in increased urban poverty, housing affordability problems, inequality between urban and rural population groups, regional disparities, and other social and economic challenges. China’s urban planning practices are in need of reform to better reflect market forces and economic behavior.
Environmental sustainability. China’s economic and demographic changes over the past 30 years have been associated with severe environmental degradation. With rapid urbanization forecast over the next decade, there is growing consensus that China must find a more sustainable development model. More sustainable cities are integral to any low-carbon development trajectory.
Answer:
C. It is the outcome of interactions between humans and their natural environment.
Explanation:
Cultural landscape can be viewed as the interaction or interconnectivity of man and nature.
That is, the way humans engage or interact with their natural environment.
Culture in its basest form can be defined as the way of life of a particular group of people.
So, this way of life of a group of people can be governed by the way they interact with their physical surroundings.
Man depends on plant for air and food. It is this type of interaction between humans and their natural environment that brings about cultural landscape.
The study of governments and their boundaries is called political geography.
The correct answer is - (1) rising expanding cooling condensation.
At first there's the evaporation of water, since the water vapor is less dense than the air it rises up and starts to expend as it goes further upwards in the atmosphere. Once it reaches the upper layers of the troposphere than the cooling process starts because the temperature is decreasing with the altitude. Because of the cooling the process of condensation will start taking place and thus the formation of clouds were the water vapor returns to liquid form and creates rain. The cycle repeats its self all the time.
