contacted for interviews, etc?

YOUR PICTURES OF URBAN GROWTH

China is growing at breakneck speed
Humans are about to become a primarily urban species.

Sometime in the next couple of years there will be more people living in
cities than in rural areas.

The pace of change over the last 50 years has swallowed up large tracts of
countryside and transformed towns into cities, cities into megacities.

The BBC is running a special season of features, quizzes, picture
galleries and statistical guides starting next week and we would like your
help.

Have you any pictures showing the old and the new? We're interested in
images that show the 'before and after' of urbanisation. Have you
photographs of rural areas before the arrival of concrete? Send them to
yourpics at bbc.co.uk
