Abstract

Urban development can change the face of the living environment that is different from the original. For this reason, there must be careful planning by making good and healthy spatial planning by looking at the environmental conditions around it. Urban development that does not see spatial planning can cause environmental degradation. Environmental degradation is a decrease in the carrying capacity or quality of the environment due to the taking and over-utilization of environmental resources. Environmental degradation can cause several problems, such as natural disasters, drastic climate change, the emergence of diseases, and environmental pollution. Two factors cause environmental degradation, namely: Natural and human factors. Natural factors such as floods, tsunamis, climate change, and others, while human factors can be in the form of increasing the population that needs land for their habitat and life, excessive exploitation of natural resources, and other money. Several ways can reduce the occurrence of environmental degradation due to sustainable urban development, namely by paying attention to the spatial plans that have been made, and improving the community’s economy, and community cultural culture.
