Smart growth is a potential solution to help reduce the outward sprawl from the cities to the suburbs. It helps create a new type of suburban environment, by staying closer to the cities. This would also reduce the amount of land that is used as highways between the cities and their suburbs, and as a result, more land could be saved for wildlife of forest preserves. There would be more compact neiborhoods, but the amount of polution would rise significantly from more compact and concise cities.
