குடியிருப்புக்களின் செறிவினால் ஏற்படும் சூழல் பிரச்சினைகள் : மருதமுனை பிரதேசத்தை மையப்படுத்திய ஓர் ஆய்வு

Abstract

Settlement is the abode that man has set up on earth for his own needs. As food and clothing are important in human life, so is shelter. Settlements are designed to protect animals, thieves, and enemies. The dwellings thus seen are generally classified into two types, urban dwellings. and rural dwellings. In terms of rural settlements, although the land areas are more, the settlements are less. But in terms of urban housing, residential areas are densely populated. despite the low land area. Examples include residences in countries such as China, Germany, and France. Thus, the concentration of dwellings causes various environmental problems. In that sense, the concentration of settlements in the study area of Maruthamunai has increased. from the earliest times to the present day. This raises a number of ecological issues. That is. why the topic “The Environmental Challenges of Dense Settlements: A study based on Maruthamunai Area” has been selected and the problems they face have been explored. As well as proposing solutions to environmental problems caused by the concentration of dwelling. as a sub – objective. The questionnaire was distributed as the first standard data in order to achieve the objectives of this study. This is 0.5 percentage of the total population of 17855. found in 8 Grama Sevakar divisions. The first thus obtained. Secondary data are analyzed. through MS Office 2013, Arc GIS, etc. and presented as results in drawings, diagrams and tables. Also, physical and anthropological ecological problems in the study area have been. identified and appropriate solutions have been proposed. That is why we can prevent the environmental problems caused by the concentration of settlements by implementing solution. to these problems. It is safe to say that this review will be of little help in bringing about. sustainable development and security from the appropriate stakeholders in informing the community of the issues discussed in this review.
