Urbanization and Air Environment in Jaipur: Planners aim to understand, analyze and influence the variety of forces—social, economic, cultural, legal, political, ecological, technological, aesthetic and so forth shaping the built environment. The present study focuses on the impact of urbanization on air quality in Jaipur city, ‘Pink City’. It is noted that the concentration of respirable suspended particulate matter (RSPM) in residential, commercial and industrial areas of the city are more than the prescribed air quality norms. In fact, the concentration of RSPM in residential and commercial areas of the city is more than the industrial area. With increasing population and growing pollution, we cannot ignore the ill effects of planning on the environment. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Environment and Urbanization Asia SAGE

Abstract

Planners aim to understand, analyze and influence the variety of forces—social, economic, cultural, legal, political, ecological, technological, aesthetic and so forth shaping the built environment. The present study focuses on the impact of urbanization on air quality in Jaipur city, ‘Pink City’. It is noted that the concentration of respirable suspended particulate matter (RSPM) in residential, commercial and industrial areas of the city are more than the prescribed air quality norms. In fact, the concentration of RSPM in residential and commercial areas of the city is more than the industrial area. With increasing population and growing pollution, we cannot ignore the ill effects of planning on the environment.
