Suburban sprawl with manicured lawns is pretty bad, too. Fortunately there are cultural shifts away from that.

- lwansbrough 3y agoUrban sprawl generally refers to the development of suburbs outside cities. That’s what I was referring to.
- anonymouskimmer 3y agoI thought it was a more general term, and that suburbs were distinct. But it does appear that suburbs are considered a part of urban sprawl. Regardless, manicured lawns are an environmentally bad thing on their own. When you mentioned urban sprawl I first thought of expansion of the urban heat-island effect.
