Guiding questions:

This is a super cool wikipedia article! I really like that there is information about the history and what land-use planning is! Also it is super cool that they add information about the pros/cons of land use planning. However, your sandbox I think can maybe add debates about alternatives to land-use planning and information about the future of land use planning! Also, I think it would help if you added a title about what your sandbox is supposed to contribute to in the article since your sandbox talks about the importance of land-use planning and what it requires. Also, there is not much information about land use planning in the United States so maybe you can expand on that and add more to your sandbox about the US Land planning.

  1. Add debates about alternatives to land-use planning
  2. Future of land use
  3. US Land planning
  4. Add title for what your sandbox information is going to have.

Content evaluation

(insert subsection header)

In an increasingly urbanized world, there are also rising levels of environmental degradation when it comes to energy usage and green/energy efficient neighborhoods. In the 20th century, there was a global push to develop large cities quickly to accommodate the people who were migrating from rural areas to cities that had job availability. Because of this focus on "limitless growth", the environment was disregarded and damaged by numerous urban development projects. In order to strive for environmentally viable cities and landscapes, the issue of the climate crisis needs to be addressed in a way that would not compromise the way of life that many people are used to, while also preserving the ecological landscape required to sustain life on Earth. (How do you preserve ecological landscape) A sustainable urban development must be able to protect and enhance the environment, such as reducing waste and limiting pollution, while also meeting social needs and promoting economic success, such as protecting universal access to necessities and encouraging access to facilities/goods/services in ways that do not require the use of a car. (provide more examples of sustainable urban development)
