The Importance Of Population Growth

There have been many other extremely knowledgeable humans who agree that eventually, “the earth’s carrying capacity will no longer be able to keep up with population growth, and civilization will end unless large swaths of human beings are killed, so the question is: How do we want to do this?” In a very credible and well-esteemed publication, Dr. Edwin Peters, a Cambridge University ecologist followed up this statement by asking a critical question: “Do we want to give

Population Growth is an issue that exists in today’s world that needs to be confronted before it becomes out of hand. The population itself has reached overwhelming numbers making it a problem that could turn to be dangerous. The amount of humans that the earth can support or the carrying capacity is slowly rising but at a much slower rate than the population growth rate. The increasing growth rate has its negative effects environmentally, agriculturally, socially, and economically and also has its positive effects nationally, and economically. The government is brainstorming and trying to come up with ways to decrease

Human population growth is becoming a huge issue in our world today. The population is increasing rapidly. The reason that it is becoming a concern is because it has affected the economic, environmental, and social aspects of our world. In the film Frontline: Heat, we can see how there might not be a future for our planet unless we are able to reduce the emissions and make our world a safe place. Not only for the present but also for future generations so that they are able to live long and healthy lives.

It can be said that the same immigrant and especially international students have contributed a small portion of their GDP Canadian economy ( Detai: International students contribute about 8 billion dollar ỏ 4,9 billion GDP 2008) , (” Tại sao Canada luôn là nơi định cư...”). After graduation all of them want to work and desire to become Canadian citizen. The Canada economy has certain impact on average growth of (2,5 % by 2015). In order to promote economic development, diplomacy with other countries in the region and outside the region is very important as exponent relationship with countries in Asia,Europe and other countries. Labor shortage due to aging of the population with low bi also one of the most important issues in the Canadian has met nearly enough skilled workers in factories,

The increased population of the planet is putting pressure on vulnerable natural resources such as food and water supplies. We have seen great benefits from science and technology, but these new technologies have altered consequences for the planet. We, as people, are the collective nervous system of the planet. Just like the frog who jumps in the warm water and never notices the water is getting hotter and hotter until it boils and he is a goner, the time will come when we will wish that we had connected the dots and paid attention to the signs a little

Throughout human history, population growth is one of the most important topics brought into discussion. Globally, there are about 7.2 billion people in the world, and it will rise up to 11 billion or more by the 21st century (Brown). When we look back in the history, population growth has been so slow as to be imperceptible within a single generation, “Reaching a globally population of 1 billion in 1804 required the entire time since the humans appeared on the scene. To add the second billion, it took until 1927, just over 100 years. Thirty- three years later, in 1960, world population reached 3 billion” (Brown 15). Then the pace sped

The world’s population is anticipated to reach nine billion by 2050, having almost ninety percent of that growth occurring in the developing world. On top of that, the world’s population will continue to develop toward urban areas having approximately 70% living in urban populations by 2050 as compared to around fifty percent today. The world has faced an unprecedented rise in population during the past century having dramatic shifts in the production and consumption of food and for the most part has accommodated this population explosion, but with the changes in the consumption of meats in the world, the strain on resources will become more severe. In 1965, the per capita consumption of meat in developing countries was around ten

Humans have grown. Not just in size, but in population. With this population growth comes a lifestyle change, as there are more and more hard working people on the planet there are also an increasing amount of sedentary people. Population growth causes the modern lifestyle to be sedentary. As said in an article by Smithsonian, “For millions of years all humans, early and modern alike, had to find their own food. They spent a large part of each day gathering plants and hunting or scavenging animals.  Then, within just the past 12,000 years, our species, Homo sapiens, made the transition to producing food and changing our surroundings.”  This quote shows that as population grows over time, people are more able to have their surroundings adapt to them rather than the people adapting to their surroundings. The food that people eat, as well as the resources people use, become easily accessible and require less effort to acquire. This leads to a sedentary modern lifestyle.

Do you ever wonder how we, humans, can make a negative impact on our own natural resources? From the food we eat to the clothes we wear, everything relies on plant life. Consequently, that plant life depends on the soil beneath our feet, in fact, beneath this building that we call our school. Before this school was established, there used to be land that could grow crops and feed several families. Although, as this society evolved, there was a need for shelter, education, and work for the families that lived here, therefore, this land was replaced by buildings and houses. This is one of many problems that are happening around the world but, can you imagine what will happen in 2025 when the world’s population will increase by 1 billion?

Picture this, you wake up one day and there are more than 1,000 people living on your land, how would you react? It’s a pretty large piece of land with enough supplies to support your lifestyle. However, with 1,000 more people living in that same area, it has become crowded and compacted. The next day, 1,000 more people come to live on your land. This continues to happen every day for many years, soon supplies start to become scarce and space is limited, sadly this is our reality. There are 7.4 billion human beings on the face of the Earth and just in the United States alone there are 323 million. According to some estimates, there are somewhere between three and seven times more people than this planet can possibly maintain over a long period of time. Each day the world’s population grows more and more every day, which is drawing closer to that limit. In the past, infant deaths and short life spans used to limit the population growth. Now, due to better medical care, nutrition, and sanitation people are starting to live longer lives. This population crisis in America is starting to become problem, and we can’t afford to overlook this escalating issue. The value of life and the environment are also being damaged. America is slowly becoming a pollution to this planet, therefore in order to continue living prosperous lives we must find a way to slow down the population rate.

Over the course of history, many scientist experts have raised the fright and panic about population numbers that only increase every year. According to the Living Planet Report, “the Living Planet Index (LPI), which measures more than 10,000 representative populations of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish, has declined by 52 per cent since 1970.” Population sizes of different species in the world has dropped by at least half. Some of these species are the living things that establishes the fabric of the ecosystems which sustain life on Earth. “In the following two centuries, the population increased at an annual growth rate of 6 per 1,000, reaching 2.5 billion by 1950. In the following five decades, it has more than doubled, at a growth rate of 18 per 1,000 to reach more than 6 billion in 2000. The world population will reach 8 billion to 10 billion by the year 2030” (Robbins, 130). Today, we are using and taking so much from our ecosystems and natural processes, we are actually exposing and exploiting our own very existence on Earth. Nature preservation and sustainable ecological development complement each other. They are just as much about protecting the future of humanity – our well-being, economy, food security, and social stability.

The world that we live in is an amazing and sensational place. You spend every day on earth with the opportunity to partake in something incredible. What if I told you that Earth was in jeopardy and humans were the core problem? Today there are approximately 7.2 billion people living on Earth. Just 15 years ago, in the year 2000, we had approximately 6.1 billion people. We experienced an increase of over one billion people in just 15 years. Human overpopulation is a problem in todays society and needs to be taken care before we face critical consequences. We as humans are simply not ready for this kind of population influx and neither is the Earth. You can not deny the fact that there are environmental issues along with poverty occurring across the globe. I am here to tell you that the amount of humans inhabiting this planet is a contributing factor to not only these issues, but several others. If we do not attempt to attain a solution, be prepared to face serious, if not fatal, repercussions.

There are over Six Billion people inhabiting the planet earth today and that number is growing. “In the six seconds it takes you to read this sentence, eighteen more people will be added” (Ehrlich 9). The total population of the World, projected on October 23, 2001 at 6:28:09 pm GMT was 6,181,600,089 people (U.S. Bureau of the Census). Each hour there are 11,000 more mouths to feed; each year more than 95 million. Nevertheless, the world has hundreds of billions fewer tons of topsoil and hundreds of trillions fewer gallons of groundwater with which to grow food crops than it had in 1968.

With the dramatic growth in human population, resources will be depleted quickly. According to Worldometers, a world statistic site, there is an annual increase of approximately 80 million in the human population. This number will grow in the future, as the nature of the growth of the human population is exponential. “On a finite planet sustainability is not an option, it’s just a matter of how
