This past week, CNN had an article on its website about urban sprawl - and how it's happening all around the globe. The article has some great photos with it, including a photo of how Dubai has changed in the last 10 years. Click on this link - and then drag the line in the center of the photo back and forth to see how the city grew from 200,000 to 1.2 million in 10 years.
[We live in the bottom right corner of the photo - there's a green strip just above the word "colour" that shows University City, where the American University of Sharjah is located]. This green strip is visible in both the 2000 and 2010 photos.
