Abstract:
In the past ten years North Carolina's population increased 16.6 percent. With the increase come demands for more housing, roads, and services. Such rapid growth, if not managed, can have a negative impact on the environment, depleting water resources and polluting the air. Shore discusses what the state can do about rapid growth and its environmental effect.
