The Overpopulation Of The Human Race

China's One Child Policy was a very bad idea and should not have been implemented at all. If Chinese couples want to have as many kids as they want then instead of averting birth China should have to adapt to the changes and support the families. China could branch out or expand land for farming needs to support the increase of

7. Why is the “2 child rule” so important in terms of global population and its impacts?

Finally, The One Child Policy was a good idea because it pushed academic success, lessens the load on the environment, and lowers fertility rates which then lowers the population density of already crowded China. Although China’s One Child Policy was a great idea and has helped China significantly, it has created a gender imbalance of over 32 million males than there are

Probably the world’s largest overlooked problem. You may not realise it, but the scale of this is huge! Many people seem to think it is not a big issue, “we have lots of space” they say. But it is not the space that’s the problem. Overpopulation is the direct cause of poverty, global warming, animal extinction, air and water pollution, plant and animal habitat loss, disease outbreak, etc. and the list goes on. If we do not start making an effort to fix these, then our society may end up like the dystopias we see in the

Thesis: The topic of human population growth is an important issue due to its impacts upon people in developing countries, economics, religion, food production, and the environment; without any limitations, population growth can lead to negative consequences, such as famine and environmental destruction, or even positive outcomes, such as potential economic growth.

Some argue that the policy is beneficial to sustain the economy, society, population, resources and the environment. About four hundred million births have been prevented with the policy helping with the population problem (Wan n.p). Pollution and a lack of resources are some of the reason that people think the one child policy is necessary. Another reason that people think the policy is necessary is if the population continues to grow it would be harder for people to find food, causing people to starve. People see the policy as a good thing because it is helping the government by not using as many resources.

The indefinite growth of the human population, has monumental impacts on the natural environment, not only in the UK, but around the globe. Architecturally, the entire process of designing and constructing a building, both domestic and not, can lead to the rapid exhaustion of natural resources across the planet. Building with environmental design strategies in mind not only combats the impact we as humans have on the natural environment, but also has considerable economic benefits, due to lower running costs of buildings and advanced occupant productivity. There are also many social benefits, such as improved air quality which resultantly leads too enhanced health of a buildings occupants.

Throughout the last few hundred years, humans have built a foundation. Compared to all of the other animal species on Earth, humans are the most intelligent. We have built houses everywhere, developed a system to sustain ourselves, and now inhabit almost every piece of land on earth. Humans are smart, strong, and know how to fend for themselves. But, humans have a tendency to take it too far, and we have already done so. There have been numerous advancements over the past few hundred years which could ultimately lead to the downfall of the human race. The main issue is overpopulation due to the advancements in technology and general knowledge. The statistics from an article by Kenneth Smail show that “In the year 1900, there were almost 2 billion humans living on Earth. Throughout the 1960’s, the baby boom, there were 3 billion humans on Earth. Today in 2016, there are just over 7 billion humans living on Earth.” Currently, we have taken up just over half of all available land on this planet, and with increased amounts of people having kids, our population will only increase. Overpopulation is becoming a serious problem all around the world, especially in countries such as China and India. There are many global problems associated with overpopulation that are becoming more and more prevalent, which will all have dangerous effects on the foundation that humans have

The earth’s growing population is a global concern. Both developed and third-world countries, are experiencing shortages of food, water and access to adequate healthcare. Although the poorest are hardest hit, even powerful countries like the United States and Great Brittan have been affected. Recent shortages of medication and fuel are contributing to speculation and concern. Governments the world over are turning to alternative energy and sustainable living, as a means of supporting the increased populace. The People’s Republic of China, however, has taken a drastically different approach with the implementation and enforcement of the One-Child per family policy.

The world population is only growing. The U.N. predicts that from today’s 7.5 billion we will reach 9.3 billion by the year 2050. (World Population Prospects n.p) In New York Times author Nicholas Kristof’s article, The Birth Control Solution, Kristof attempts to promote family planning as a solution to many of the world’s problems. He will do this by giving examples that an out of control global population causes poverty, conflict, and environmental damage; and that family planning would be a cost effective solution.

Population control will help the world by eliminating the food shortages for the humans to eat and for the animals too. If there are less people on the earth, there will be enough food for everyone including the homeless people. America wouldn't have to worry about the bad weather for the crops to grow for people to eat. If the world can’t control the population growth, the farmers will have to go great lengths to produce more food in their fields. People don't have to depend on the farmers to provide them fresh food if there’s less people on the earth. If we have the two child per

Another thing that countries could try in order to decrease the overpopulation is increase the focus they put on their women. Developing countries tend to have higher rates in childbirth the ration to parents to kids are higher. The more children that people have the more children that can go to work , bring in money or cook and clean around the household. Women and girls in these countries have little to no education. They have to stay at home and raise their children or help out with brothers and sisters.Women that live in countries like the United States and Canada have low birth rates and tend to wait until they are older to have children if they have any.These women are bought up to go to school and then further their education.After

If all these solutions were used, The world’s birth rate start to decline significantly before 2050. Defending human rights and promoting education can prevent our population from reaching 9 billion.

In today’s society there are many economic problems, such as pollution, global warming, and overpopulation. These problems have taken a toll on the environment, and its resources. Although all of these issues have an impact on our society, overpopulation stands to have the greatest impact on our environment, due to the large masses of people and the limited resources. There are many solutions to this problem but the common factor is the human race. The human race has to put controls in place and take care of the environment, so the required resources do not become extinct.

Research physicist for the American Center for International Policy Studies, Gioietta Kuo, in her article “Mega Crisis? Overpopulation is the Problem” describes the possibility of a global mega-crisis, a “perfect storm” of political, economic, and environmental instability resulting from overpopulation and leading to the extinction of mankind (Kuo, 23). The purpose of Kuo’s article is to stress the fact that overpopulation has been over looked as the source of many of the problems afflicting the world today, including climate change, food and water scarcity, environmental degradation, as well as other economic and social effects like unemployment. She adopts logos, ethos, and pathos as well as an urgent tone in order to persuade the United Nations, government officials, and the general public to acknowledge the fact the current high population is the main cause of the problems affecting the world today and also to stress that the unchecked population growth will lead to a mega-crisis.
