is a widely known fact that the population of the world increases by a great factor every year. However, not many people know what exactly is causing this upsurge. In the past century, the population has radically grown. The main things increasing the world’s population are medical care and infant mortality rates because both have changed drastically over the past century. Firstly, the infant mortality rate is one of the main factors that affect the world population. It has plummeted in the past hundred

Introduction: Although Colorado’s growing population may be beneficial for the economy and social standings in our country, it poses some ecological concerns. According to the Colorado State Demography Office, Colorado’s population has grown by nearly 75% since 1985 (Figure 1). In fact, Larimer County’s population has doubled in that same time period. It has become evident that changes in Colorado’s landscape have been altered due to this population boom. It is within our best interest to evaluate

Population Growth: Density dependent factors Abstract Sets of experiments were used to assess the growth rate of the Lemna minor, a duckweed population. The growth of Lemna minor was observed and followed by counting and recording the number of thalli on a weekly basis. These experiments were constructed lab models which varied the size of the starting thalli population, and varied the nutrient concentration the thali were placed in. In the first experimental model two plastic cups were prepared

When the world celebrated the 7 billionth baby’s birth in Manila a few years back, we were stepping in a society with noticeable population explosion. Those overpopulated societies which can no longer sustain themselves invade the natural environment which belongs to wildlife and over exploit natural resources for survival. Human beings are supposed to be responsible for the majority of environmental problems, while overpopulation exacerbates most problems such as pollution, deforestation, global

Literature Review Several studies (Oltjen et al., 1996; Dahlen et al., 2014; Thornton, 2010; and Tilman et al., 2002) drawn the conclusion that as the world population increases the global food production must as well. The current meat practices in the U.S are unsustainable in terms of being able to meet the future demands of global society (Dahlen et al., 2014). Although livestock practices have changed dramatically over time to make production more efficient it has negative impacts on the environment

The world should stop its population from reaching 9 billion in 2050 by creating several laws ensuring that women have the average number of children of 2.1. This is important because in the future if/when the world becomes overpopulated, the quality of life itself will decrease. It is so extremely important to work to limit the world population growth because not only will the world become overpopulated with people, but the quality of those people’s lives will equal to nothing. Nobody wants that

The human population is growing rapidly, and Earth doesn't have enough space for it. In 1967, Earth had a population of 3 billion, and only about 50 years later, that number had doubled into 7 billion. There are many reasons why our population is increasing so fast, in so little time, but I'll only go over two. The first, and foremost the most recognised reason, is the birth to death rate ratio. Every minute there is almost twice as many births then there are deaths; 200 births to 100 deaths. There
