A nation’s population size and the affluence of its citizenseach influence its resource consumption and environmentalimpact. As of 2013, the world’s population passed 7.1 billion,average per capita income was $11,690 per year, and the latest estimate for the world’s average ecological footprint was2.7 hectares (ha) per person. The sampling of data in the tablewill allow you to explore patterns in how population, affluence,and environmental impact are related. Draw a graph illustrating total impact (on the y axis) inrelation to affluence (on the x axis). What do the resultssuggest to you?
According to the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM), as of 2020, the country’s share of agriculture stood at 7.4% of the overall GDP, which is comparatively lower than neighbouring countries such as Indonesia (13.7%) and Thailand (8.6%). Nonetheless, 16% of Malaysians are involved in agriculture. The above issues can be mainly attributed to the traditional, labour-intensive farming methods, which require constant monitoring and suffers from high wastage. Explain how the agricultural industry in Malaysia can achieve allocative efficiency.

Based on World Bank data, Philippines real per capita GDP in 2019 was US$3,850. It needs to increase this to at least US$15,000 to attain a high-income country status. By how much should real per capita grown annually if it wants to achieve this status in year a) 2028; b) 2037; c) 2055?
"Population, Resources, and the Environment Much of the concern over environmental issues stems from the perception that we may reach a limit to the number of people whose needs can be met by the earth’s finite resources. We may or may not reach this point, given the potential for new technological discoveries, but it is clear that continuing on our present path of accelerating environmental degradation would severely compromise the ability of present and future generations to meet their needs. A slowing of population growth rates would help ease the intensification of many environmental problems. However, the rate and timing of fertility declines, and thus the eventual size of world population, will largely depend on the commitment of governments to creating economic and institutional conditions that are conducive to limiting fertility." What is the meaning of this statement?
TRUE or FALSE 11. A high fertility rate reduces the per capita income, be it the Gross National Income per Capita or the Gross Domestic Product per capita. 12. The natural environment can bring about an increase or decrease in the population growth rate. 13. Rapid population growth does not necessarily reflect market failure. 14. Urbanization and localized economies lead to resource immobility 15. The most relevant advantage of locating a firm in an Industrial District is knowledge spillover. 16. The K -12 Program added years to basic education but Philippines student learning still lags behind many East Asian countries. 17. Investment in human capital is beneficial in the short run but investment in physical capital is beneficial in the long run. 18. Centralized urbanization leads to underdeveloped peripheral economies. 19. Improving hard infrastructures rather than soft infrastructures is absolutely a…

The economy of Ghana is made up of three sectors namely Agriculture, Industry andServices. These three sectors contribute to the national output. For decades prior to the2000s, the Agricultural sector contributed the most to the national output. Sadly, inrecent years however, the sector has been the least contributor to national output.Trends in production of major food crops such as maize, rice and sorghum show thaton-farm productivity has stagnated and the exploitable difference between the actualand the potential output of most of the crops (yield gap) has widened. Low andinadequate levels of usage of productivity enhancing technologies such as quality seedsof improved varieties and fertilizer, thin extension services and weak market linkagescontributes to the poor agricultural performance. It was against this background thatthe NPP-led government implemented one of her flagship programmes “Planting for Food and Jobs”.The programme is primarily aimed at making subsidized improved…
