  1. A
    Higher carbon emissions
  2. B
    Increased green spaces

  4. D
    Improved water quality

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Urbanization leads to denser populations, increased industrial activity, vehicular transportation congestion, and significant energy consumption. This concentration heavily drives up fossil fuel usage and infrastructure construction, resulting directly in higher carbon emissions and the urban heat island effect, rather than improvements in water quality or green space expansions.
