Many people are forced to live in slums because of their poverty. Slums occur all over the world, they cause poverty, global warming and diseases. Very poor people live in slums.

  One of the main reasons slums occur all over the world is because of poverty. Poor people live in the slum. The slums are over crowded and surrounded by bunch of trash. The houses are so small and scrambled all over each other. Most houses are made out of mud. The slums are so polluted that they cause global warming.

  The second main reason that slums occur all around the world is because of global warming. The slums are so polluted that they cause global warming. The slums are surrounded by trash and dirty water which creates global warming. the polluted city can cause disease for the people living in the slum.

  The third main reason that slums occur all around the world is diseases. People who are sick don't go see a doctor, and the disease begins to spread because they live so close to each other. Slums have polluted water that might get the people sick who drink it and will spread to other people living in slums.
  In conclusion, slums are very bad to humans. They cause poverty, global warming, and diseases. they effect people, and they should take care of them so they can be good to the ecosystem.
