Abstract
Urban development often generates noise and light pollution, reduces green space, produces heat islands, and increases population density that can exacerbate crime, disease transmission, anxiety, and stress. This article argues that individuals and communities have rights to not have their space impinged upon by urban plans, designs, or development. This negative right means governments have ethical obligations to develop infrastructure that mitigates adverse health consequences, preserves natural environments, safeguards ecological well-being, and promotes peace and public health.
