It is widely acknowledged that living in big cities is harmful to their health. In my opinion, I agree that pollution in big cities can significantly affect respiratory health.
First of all, high pollution levels in big cities increase the risk of asthma and other lung diseases. For example, in Vietnam, Hanoi is the place with the highest pollution levels while people living here almost have to wear masks when going out. The fast-paced lifestyle in urban areas can lead to increased stress levels, contributing to mental health problems such as anxiety and depression. However, large cities also provide better access to healthcare services and facilities, potentially improving overall health outcomes for residents.
It’s also important to note that noise pollution in densely populated areas can interfere with sleep, leading to insomnia and other sleep disorders. So students and jobs can change their active lifestyle. However, urban environments can encourage a more active lifestyle through walking or cycling, especially in cities with good infrastructure for pedestrians and cyclists.
In conclusion, although there are reasons to justify living in big cities with lots of activities or amenities, I think the pollution or stress they bring is more effective
