How do you fill the hole around the sewer pipe outlet through the concrete wall. It leaks and floods my basement?

The only sure way is to dig down on the outside and seal it from there. Water will tend to push out anything you use on the inside. If it was me, I think I would use some of the expanding foam in a can. If you can get the nozzle between the pipe and the concrete it should seal it. Finish the inside with some concrete patch caulk.

How urbanization causes more flooding?
Urbanisation is part of why there are floods happening because when it floods the water cannot go through the concrete because it is an impermeable material, therefore it causes a flood because the water has nowhere to go. Also when there is deforestation because of urbanisation there are no trees to take in the water so it results in a flood.
