Megaregions are beginning to form as the world’s 1 join together. These

2
megaregions are capable of crossing borders and may be home to more
than 100 million people, according to a UN report.
The largest of these is currently the Pearl River Delta region in China, which includes the cities
of Hong Kong, Shenhzhen and Guangzhou among others, and which provides 3
for 120 million people. Other megaregions are appearing in Japan, Brazil,
India and Africa. This continuing trend means that more than half the world’s population is now
living in cities.
The growth of megaregions is leading to urban sprawl, which increases transport costs and
energy consumption, and causes 4 for farming to be lost.
Income 5 is also more apparent in the megaregions. In US cities, the top 1%
of
6
households earns more than 70 times the average income of the poorest
20% of the population. Incomes in Latin American, Asian and African cities were found to be
more
7
, mainly because they were poorer.

We have all heard of the difference in 1 between women and men, but
according to a new report, the difference begins in early childhood, with boys in the UK
receiving 20% more 2 than girls do.
Research shows boys get more money than girls even from a very young age, probably because
they simply 3 more. Not only do girls receive less money, but they also have
less financial independence, are less likely to receive regular payments, and are more dependent
on others to buy 4 for them. Boys get an average of £10.70 per week from
5
pocket money or payment for around the home, while girls of the same age
receive an average of only £8.50. As children get older, the gap between the figures grows
larger, reaching 30% at age 16.
Giving children financial autonomy from an early age is important for their development, but
while boys are more likely to be given regular 6 handouts, the research says
the parents of girls are more likely to hold on to their daughters’ money and hand it over when it
is required.
