Facts & figures across the world
• Over 50% of our global population live in cities. They are also responsible
for around 70% of global energy related emissions. They are on the
frontline of both climate impacts and the transition to a sustainable future
for all.
Our cities are changing. More than ever, cities around the world are
leading the way to building a sustainable economy. But we need to move
even faster. Explore our open data portal for more on how cities across
the globe are taking environmental action.
We know that cities can play a critical role in tackling climate change.
While cities occupy only two percent of the world’s land mass, they are
home to 55% of the world’s population (with this figure set to rise to 70%
by 2050). Cities also consume about two-thirds of the world’s energy.2

• More than half of the world’s population now live in urban areas. By 2050, that
figure will have risen to 6.5 billion people – two-thirds of humanity. Sustainable
development cannot be achieved without significantly transforming the way we
build and manage our urban spaces.
• The rapid growth of cities in the developing world, coupled with increasing rural
to urban migration, has led to a boom in mega-cities. In 1990, there were ten
mega-cities with 10 million inhabitants or more. In 2014, there are 28 mega-
cities, home to a total 453 million people.
• Sustainable city life is one of 17 Global Goals that make up the 2030 Agenda
for Sustainable Development. An integrated approach is crucial for progress
across the multiple goals.
• Extreme poverty is often concentrated in urban spaces, and national and city
governments struggle to accommodate the rising population in these areas.
Making cities safe and sustainable means ensuring access to safe and
affordable housing, and upgrading slum settlements. It also involves
investment in public transport, creating green public spaces, and improving
urban planning and management in a way that is both participatory and
inclusive.
