Perception towards Family Planning and its Implication to Environmental Sustainability: In this regard, the impact of urbanization on peri-urban environment and Descriptive survey method was used to assess the area for its water supply The UN Millennium Ecosystem Assessment determined that environmental degradation is more prominent within wetland systems than any other ecosystem on Earth. Increase in population in urban areas has led to pressures within urban wetland ecosystems. Urbanization has also contributed to the degradation of the Watiti wetland ecosystem.

Indices of biotic integrity (IBIs) are a common method of assessing biotic responses to environmental stressors, including those associated with urbanization. For given elements at risk, the hazard assessment plays a central role in the risk analysis.
