historical problems
Lacking green spaces has resulted in severe ecological as well as socio-economic problems. Public transportation and domestic consumption resulted in Greenhouse gases while industrial activities brought the site more contamination. With lacking green space to purify the air and remediate the soil, the climate and environment gradually damage the health of both human and more than human.
Economic vitality was also weakened by the shrinkage. When people realised the importance of the urban environment, the council was not able to obtain enough economic investment to improve the living condition. Therefore, social problems came after the worse living environment. The neighbourhood became fragile with decreasing population, increasing social problems (like mental health problem, food poverty and pandemics), and a weaker connection between human and more than human.
