Topic: Population - page 38. (Read 24069 times)
Overpopulation on the planet is due to the fact that poorly educated countries do not think that they first need to earn money, and then create a family and give birth to a lot of children, often without even having a job.
The increase in population is just a part of the problem. But I am more concerned with another fact. It is the least intelligent people who are having the babies right now. In countries such as Afghanistan and Niger, they are having average IQ of around 60-65. And these people are having a dozen children each. On the other hand, in countries with the highest IQ levels (Japan, China, South Korea.etc), the people are not having children.
What is the best solution to resolve our problem in overpopulation?
Have you watched The Purge or Hunger Games? I have a feeling that in the near future that there will be a new horrifying rule to reduce our overpopulation. I know its ridiculous but when I think about it I know that some wealthy people or secret organization will be forced to do that when they feel that the food or natural resources aren't sufficient enough to supply us all.
Currently, the natural resources around the world are not enough to feed 7.5 billion people. That's why we have poverty and starvation all around us. And the worst part is that even now, the human population is growing by close to 2% per year.
True, and to add something up, the land is not sufficient to hold any farms to feed us all with technology advancing on the other side - if the population still increases in the near future. There would be less space to build farms because of the technology advancing. Many lands will be useless, many tress will be cut, and many mines will corrupt the earth/soil, resulting to worsening of global warming effects. So the best solution for us now is family planning, because we cannot tell a person that they should only have one child if they prefer having a big family. We all should raise awareness to all of the people the effect of over population resulting to Earth being congested by us. The rate of dying is less than the rate of giving birth.
There's no such solution because we can't control someones mind to control themselves. but we can avoid it by ourselves, by simply thinking and sharing to others what's really it is. but overpopution is not a big deal compare to all the problems that came in our country. We first need to think about our safety.

As long as they don't marry before 60, and don't marry anybody closer to their own age than 30 years.

Mankind never solves anything. At best, mankind finds solutions that already exist, and then exercises them.

There's no solution to this. People are created to recreate life, so it's impossible to stop the increase of population. The better solution is to let the people aware about the effect of over population. Over population limits our resources, the more people we have the more jobs, houses, natural resources we need.

If only NASA can find a goddamn planet instead of naming every stars then we could resolve the problem. I have still hopes for them because we really can't just tell people to stop reproducing.
I don't think that even NASA is capable of finding such a planet. All the exoplanets which are having the remotest chance of supporting human habitation are located at least 2,000 light years away from our solar system. Traveling to these planets will take millions, if not billions of years. So we have only one option left. That is to stay on earth and make this planet inhabitable for everyone.

Overpopulation may seem like a big problem but I think the biggest problem is misallocation of resources and how wasteful we have become, people throw away perfectly working phones just because a new one is available, we have become very wasteful and if that was not the case the current population of the world will not be a problem.So according to you, there should be equality in wealth around the world. That's not going to work. So there will be a disparity in the wealth levels of the people, as long as human race exists in this planet. If people can afford a new phone, then I don't understand the purpose of forcing them to use an old one. Do you favor asking people to use floppy disks instead of DVDs?
How much of our food is wasted? May be 20% at the most. The same may be the case with other resources. But even if we take in to account this 20%, the world is still overpopulated and incapable of sustaining such a huge population.

I guess political authorities already took a responsibility for that issue years ago..
there are lot of problem in our society. population problem is one of them.mainly I think that it make without getting the people employment or any work for living.if we can make more imployement for the people by which they can live peacefully without any reason then the problem will solve.

Equality of wealth will not going to work because many people are greedy. they dont think other people who are suffering poverty and just want to have power on this world. and also some people are just lazy to work thats why they are poor.

In population growth births exceed deaths. In the modern world this is due to reduction of infant deaths, control of infectious diseases and improved agriculture
Overpopulation will never happen, because every human being born must have died, believe me this world will be balanced if run naturally
It looks to me we have outsmarted our natural selves with science and technology.
population is one of the biggest problem of every country. Now a days at a young age a lot of them are giving birth to their first child, because the young people dont have enough knowledge about pregnancy they keep on having sex with their partner and havibg a unwantted pregnancy. Government did a lot of activities in every barangay and discuss what is the effect of having a big family... The government cannot contfol this issue even they have the program of bitth control..

^^^ Right! With all the nutritional info around these days, we should be able to significantly increase the population... the thing that God wants to happen.
