Population And Its Effects On The World

Over population is an extremely serious problem facing the world today. According to an article from Newsweek in Oct. 2009 called “Where do babies come from?”, today’s world population has reached over 6.6 billion people. Also the article mentioned that in 2009 57.4% of all new born babies who were born this year came from Asia alone. This is an issue because over population can lead to hasty consumption of resources. China who has one of the largest population in the world with over 1.3 billion people, has taken a stance against over population.

Population increased due to more immigrants and natural increase. The immigrants coming into the continent increased as well because of push and pull factors. Push factors are bad events like war, disease, religion, teeny, taxes, poverty, or no jobs. Pull factors are good events like available land, money opportunities, freedom of religion, jobs, medical care, and democracy. Natural increase is where the population increase because with available medical care now the life expectancy increases, less die due to sickness, and more babies are born.

Availability of resources: Regions with an abundant supply of natural resources such as oil, raw metal, and wood tend to have a high population density because places with more resources often have a better standard of living. (Spatial Significance: The availability of resources is a major factor in where people live. People tend to live near places rich in resources to survive. Without much resources, the life expectancy will be lower than places with much resources).

For one to understand the population, you have to understand the measure in population. Population is all the inhabitants of a particular area, country, or area of a particular group, section, or type of people or animals living in an area or country. I truly believe that all inhabitance of the earth belongs to some type of population.

As the human race continues to grow older the population starts to grow. Population growth is a change in the size of a population over time, depending on the balance of births and deaths over a period of time. For the world, population grows when the amount of births exceeds the amount of deaths. As shown in figure 1, the world’s population grew very slowly until about 1750 that is when the population growth started to increase rapidly. Figure 2 shows the growth of the global population from 1950 onwards, it also shows the projected population growth up to 2050. The global population is estimated to rise to approximately 9 billion people by 2050.

My best guess is India will have the highest population density because they are industrializing quickly, have plenty resources and are working to get more and also they have lot of job opportunities. In other places it does seem like there will be much industrialization such as Africa which can cause the people to die out when they do nt have resources. Also the culture in India from what I have seen is that people have many children and encourage big families and take care of each other.

     Population growth during the 20th century was notably rapid. In 1994, the total world population was estimated at about 5.6 billion people. It increased nearly 4 billion people during the 20th century. The most

According to a new report from the National Science Foundation’s National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics (NCSES), Asia’s total 2.96 million, India’s 2013 figure represented an 85 per cent increase from 2003.

The Global human population increases growth amounts to around 75 million annually, or 1.1% per year. The global population has grown from 1 billion in 1800 to 7 billion in 2012. It is expected to keep growing, and estimates have put the total population at 8.4 billion by mid-2030, and 9.6 billion by mid-2050. Many nations with rapid population growth have low standards of living, whereas many nations with low rates of population growth have high standards of living.

Asia accounts for 59.78% of the total world population. In fact, China and India alone constitute about 37% of the world population. The total number of Asian countries is 48, including three of the most powerful forces in the global market, China, India, and Indonesia. Those three countries make up more than 40 percent of the earth’s inhabitants (Moran, Harris, & Moran, 2011, p. 323).

When a country's popultion is high, it would take a lot to get back down because as people get to their twenty's they have kids adding to the population. People are living longer all around the world, so the population keeps growing as people keep living longer and longer.

In the west of the Continent, countries are more populous than Central Asia. Asia is the most populous Continent in the world. Countries increasing exponentially with the number of people. Asia is home to most diverse and most population in the world due to the difference in economic and social aspects. Although population is increasing people in Central Asia is unevenly distributed. There is a difference between the people in the dry areas as well as the mountains.

It is clear that the global population saw an upward trend over the whole 600 years. Also, Asia was the region where most people lived in for a century.

It is well known that China is one of the biggest countries in the world in terms of area which covers an area around 9.4 million square kilometers, and also has the most heavily populated countries in the world with a population of 1.4 billion ( continue to increase ) between the years of 1950 - 2015 ( Population Research Institute, Morse.A , Feb 18, 2015 ). China's population is concentrated in the urban areas because of the availability of modern and civilized life, such as Beijing, capital city with 130 million of china’s population, which become the largest city most populous in the world in the year 2015 ( Population Research Institute, Morse.A , Feb 18, 2015 ). The number of 1.4 billion become a scary number in term of population in one country like China because to compare with other world’s population it’s equivalent to 19.22% of the total world population ( Population Research Institute, Morse.A , Feb 18, 2015 ) .

South Asia is home to a significant percentage of world population. One of its constituents, India is home to about 1.23 billion people and ranks second in terms of world population. The surrounding nations such as Pakistan, Bangladesh, etc. have a high density of persons residing per square kilometre. Only the smaller in size countries have a small proportion of population such as Bhutan,
