Japan and Australia on Population Aging As time goes on, more and more countries come into population aging period. Population aging means the ratio of 65 years or above is over 7%, or the ratio of 60 years old or above is over 10%. Japan has the most serious aging problem in the world, and as predicted, after several decades there will be no Japanese populations without taking response measures. Australia also faces with the population aging problem during recent

The phenomenon of rapid urbanization in less developed countries and in the absence of extensive industrialization, led to the emergence of illegal settlements and shanty towns, discuss the relationship between urbanization, poverty and development; and use a case study to illustrate the effects of rapid urbanization in LDC’s. Rural-urban migration occurs at varying rates in every country. This paper focuses on the process of rural-urban migration and its influence on urbanization in developing

improve the health care system, the health of the country’s population has also drastically improved. For instance, in 1950 the total population of Costa Rica was approximately one million citizens (Vargas & Muiser, 2013). The life expectancy was fifty-six years for both female and male citizens (Vargas & Muiser, 2013). The fertility rate for women at that time was 6.7 (Vargas & Muiser, 2013). By the twentieth century the population has reached close to four million citizens, and the life expectancy

expectancy is the average length of time persons, defined by age, sex, ethnic group, and socioeconomic status in a given society, are expected to live. The older population is the most rapidly increasing segment of the U.S. population. Since 1900 the number of older adults has increased over ten times and their percentage of the population has more than tripled. This increase is projected to continue at a rate of 1.3 percent annually until 2010. (Torrez, p.132) The number of ethnic minority elderly

Ostrea edulis populations are in decline worldwide throughout a wide geographical range from Norway over Morocco to the Black Sea, with current stock level estimates below those made during the 1800s (Anon, 2007). O. edulis population from the Solent is one of these declining populations with several collapses during the last century. The reasons of the last decline in the Solent oyster population from 2006 are still unknown. This species has constituted an important fishery in the Solent with commercial

Immigration is the movement through which an individual permanently moves from their place of residence from one country to another. Immigration is a topic which divides political parties and general debate.

The population is growing by 3% each year and approximately 45% of the population is below the ages of 18. One of the main causes of hunger in the country is due to the drought (period of dry weather). Many parts of this country have been affected

been the result of demographic growth that rather than economic development like in developed countries. The demographic trend of rapid declines in death rates compared to birth rates has generated large increases in population. A Lot of the urbanization of developing country populations is due to rural-urban migration. The decision to migrate mainly involves 'push and pull factors '. Push factors such as bad economic, political, and environmental circumstances force migrants out of rural areas. Pull
