Overpopulation in India The growing population in India is likely still increasing at a rapid speed. According to Taylor (2016), the overall India’s population was approximately 342 million when it obtained its independence in 1947. Moreover, (Phukan, 2014) states that the population of India has been growing quickly in around five decades to be more than 1.2 million. An increase in the population typically because the fertility rate is greater than death rate. It is due to several potential reasons

“Wildlife levels have been on the rise and are now at a point of overflowing their carrying capacities” (Emmons 3). So the need for controlling animal populations is growing. Thanks to the increase of population of humans, we are taking more and more land which is making many environments become much smaller or disappear. With the shrinking environments it becomes easier to reach the carrying capacity because the carrying capacity shrinks due to the limited environment they can access. “Hunting is

A world problem is one that cannot be solved by countries acting alone and do not affect one country alone, these problems will have consequences for many people across the globe. Additionally, global problems can be so significant that they affect the ability of the planet itself to support life. There are many world problems that are evident around the globe today, however the most significant problem is population growth. According to the UN News Centre, in 2015 the world population was 7.3

Caleb Kesinger FYE: Social Science Robert Dean 10/31/16 Malthusianism was a movement that was begun by Robert Malthus in 1789 that had a big impact on the thinking, and teachings of many great geologists, and scientists. All of the men in this paper believe in this idea that population growth is going to grow faster than the growth of food, but they all have different solutions, and thoughts on the matter. Some believe that population is so out of control that we must contain it, and even find

When the human population rises to an extent exceeding the carrying capacity, it is called Overpopulation. In an environment that is overpopulated the number of people may be more than the resources available for survival such as water, shelter, and food. Overpopulation contributes greatly to environmental damages, poor quality of life or disintegration of the population. This paper will talk about the main factors of overpopulation and the effects it has on the planet. Population continues to grow

The monarch population has decreased up to about 22 million from last year to this year. (Rice) The monarch butterfly is an insect that is beneficial to the ecosystem ;however, their population has decreased over the years. Poaching and farming have caused this declination ,but there are solutions we can work with that may help the population increase once again. The monarch butterfly is known by scientists as Danaus plexippus, which in Greek literally means "sleepy transformation." The name

In this lesson, we are going to discover why populations do not continue to grow at unlimited rates, and what ecological factors limit population growth. We'll also discover how humans factor into population limits. !!!What is Population Density? Let's imagine you're getting ready to set up an aquarium. You have to decide on freshwater or marine, size of tank, species of fish, filter, food, and where to put the tank in your home. While this is an artificial environment, you are playing Mother

Overpopulation in China Taking into consideration China’s robust economic growth over the last 20–25 years, there is little reservation that China’s has had positive impacts on the economy. Because of the increase of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), China has saved over 400 million people from definite poverty between the years 1979 to 2005 (The State Environmental Protection Administration, 2007). Despite this economic growth in urbanization and industrialization, there have arisen major concerns

Mathematical Modeling of Urban Population Changes Background of Issue The growth of population is the issue that caused widespread concern in the world now. As the world’s top 1 populous country, China’s population problem becoming more prominent. Because of the base of large population, although China has implemented the one-child policy to practice family planning, population is still increasing greatly. This huge population pressure has brought a series of problems on China’s social, political

Deer Overpopulation and Some Proposed Solutions   When people talk about deer, they are commonly talking about the North American Whitetail. That is because they are so prevalent in this country. They can be found in every state in the US. The only place where you will not find any whitetails is in parts of Arizona and California. In most states the whitetail is very prevalent, especially in the northeast. They are one of the most hunted animals in this area, particularly in Pennsylvania and
