What environmental issues did
suburbanization/demand for housing create?

On October 8, 2019, the World Health Organization released its first report on the eye health of the global population. According to the institution, more than one billion people worldwide are living with visual impairment because they do not receive the care they need for conditions such as cataract, myopia and glaucoma. This is especially relevant when it comes to residents of rural locations, low-income families and ethical minorities.

It is the responsibility of local governments to take care of the health of their citizens. Public policies must advance with science to diminish this data and improve the living conditions of the world's population. This can even be done through partnerships and aid between governments with drug technology transfer. The UN has taken a big step in publishing this report, as it is indicative for local governments to take steps to help people live more diginously.
