Home Town Sustainability

Name: Ali A Mohammed

BADHDADIs the capital city of IRAQ and it has a big civilization and it one of ancient and famous cities in the word ,

and it is one of big cites in Medal East .

POPULATION GROWTH

My home town population growth rate decrease because of the wars and unsafe situation in Baghdad. the people immigrant

from Baghdad to other cities inside and outside of Iraq to more safe cities. Population

growth rate is: 2.345%

Air Quality My hometown suffer from Air pollution because of Generators , the electric not 24 hours and the people by them Generators or leased lines form big Generators it but in streets ,Factories, the changing in wither like the sandstorms . all these reasons cause Air pollution.

biodiversity Baghdad have a nice biodiversity

because it's contain Tigris River beside that its contain a lot of birds kinds.

WASTE AND RECYCLINGThere is no exploitation in my hometown for the trash and recycling. There is a small percentage of recycle not over that 3% for juices cans and metal things, but there are a lot of recycling programs in schools.

Transport

The transportation in my country is not Mach good need to improvement and organize because its not managed from the government. Its from private owners. We don’t have trains and sub ways in my hometown and if the government supply the trains for people it will solve big problems.

EDUCATIONIn general Iraqi people are good educated in compare with other countries because the schools and universities are for free for Iraqi people so it’s a good point to built an educated society and we have a lot of public universities and private universities.

UNIVERSITIES IN IRAQ

Health and Health care the health care degree in my hometown is

not bad but need to more improvement with modern devices. we have many hospitals in Baghdad and a small clinics in every area in Baghdad that makes the people feel comfort to reach medical center and have their medical treatment and there is a program to make mobility clinics divide Baghdad to small areas to make check up for most of people and to make survey what is the diseases spread in this time. That program with cooperation with static ministry

green spaces after the financial revolution in Iraq last 10

years. The people started to invest in real estate, so most of people start to move to places near their jobs or near to city center. That make the owners in city center invest the green spaces inside their houses and built it. So its rare to see green spaces in city center especially in resident areas. But there are a little green parks in Baghdad to balance the green spaces in Baghdad and the areas around it.

Climate change

Basically in Iraq we have two seasons : hot dry summer and cold winter and now start to change because of air pollution and the lack of green spaces that plays the main rules to change climate in Iraq. Beside that the lack in green spaces make the sand and dust inter to the city in large quantities so its probable to see sand or dust storm in Baghdad

Food

My hometown have a big variation in food types and its contain a mix of people from north and south of Iraq so we have many types of foods in my hometown

Economic base

Economic base start to refresh in my country before 10 years ago and the central bank of Iraq start a new strategy to increase dinar value in compare with dollar but it's still so slow. Before 10 years ago the investment start with big companies to develop the economic base and make it be higher than the past.

Employment

The types of jobs in my hometown divided into two types: first one is work with government most of people work in this field and the second type is private companies in this type of work the people who have a good experience work. So there is a competitive between private companies and government ministries and its provide a large number of job vacancies in my home town.
