Mumbai is full of culture and religion. Every landmark, festival, and celebration you can link to religion or culture. Although Mumbai is tied to religion in many ways, it is unique from all other cities. Because Mumbai is borderd by the ocean, it is easy to import goods and recources. This acessability allows Mumbai to be a central spot for buisness, making it the buisness capitol in India. Being the buisness capitol of India causes many people to live in Mumbai, making its population high. As the population grows, so does the amount of pollution in that city. Mumbai is trying to reduce the impact it is setting on the environment by lowering the amount of pollution it produces. However, the pollution in Mumbai, and many other cities, is already so bad that it is very hard to lower the number. With the efforts Mumbai is making, its pollution rates are slowly decreasing. Movement is also a large impact on environment. In Mumbai cars, trains, buses, and rickshaws are used on a daily bases while boats, planes, and trains are used to import and export goods. With all of these vehicles on the road, the amount of pollution being released into the environment through gas and exhausts is very high. Mumbai is trying to change it's pollution habits though. Now, buses run on natural compressed gas instead of gasoline, reducing the amount of harmful gases released into the environment. Although the amount of pollution in Mumbai is very high, they are working on reducing the impact they leave on the environment. Slowly, the pollution levels in Mumbai have lowered with the work they have done. If every city in the world tried to reduce pollution in the way Mumbai did, the Earth would be a lot cleaner. We would have a healthier environment and a better life.
I already know that Mumbai is a very populated city. I believe it is one of the top five most populated cities in the world. I also know that Mumbai is located in India in the continent of Asia. India is bordered with the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea. it's neighboring countries include Pakistan and two other countries. I believe that Mumbai is a very current city that has modern day technology. They most likely use cars, trains, boats, planes, and electric scooters or bikes to get around. Because Mumbai is so close to the ocean, I believe many jobs come from that recourse. They are able to use their water access to import goods, supply jobs, and most likely supply a main food source, fish, in Mumbai. I also know that Mumbai is near the equator. Because Mumbai is so close to the equator the weather there is most likely very warm and humid year long.
