Introduction
Geology plays a crucial role in sustainable land use planning as it provides valuable information about the composition, structure, and history of the Earth’s surface. By understanding the geological characteristics of an area, land use planners can make informed decisions about how to best utilize the land while minimizing environmental impact. This project aims to explore the role of geology in sustainable land use planning and how it can contribute to the development of more environmentally friendly and resilient communities.
