The population of the world is about 16 billion people, and it is still growing (quotation). This almost doubled in the past 40 years. We are now facing serious and big problems about overpopulation. The number of people that the Earth can maintain is controversial. Some people think that everyone can adapt to Texas if there are only 10,500 people per square mile, others think that there is not enough supply and resources to be used by anyone.
The population has been growing for decades. More and more people become part of the world's population and become a big problem. The impact of over-population in the world has many influences, including environmental impact, depletion of natural resources, economic impact, food and water instability, and extinction of large species. - "We are heavy in the world and we have poor resources." Philosopher Tertuliang from the 3 rd century once said the world when his population was only 200 million people. This discussion can be interpreted in two different ways. One thing is that resources are limited, so you need to worry. The second thing is that people are worried about overpopulation, but they all seem to be successful.
People are increasingly aware of the world's "population explosion" being over, or that it has never actually been realized. When the population panic started in the late 1960s, the world's population grew at a rate of over 2% a year. Currently it is expected to continue to decline due to continued population control activities with less than 1% annual growth. The global application of the strategy recommended by Kissinger's report led to a slowing of the regional population growth and caused serious economic and social problems in Europe, the former Soviet Union, Japan, Singapore and Hong Kong. Many developing countries are now aging more rapidly than developed countries. This shows that relatively low-developed countries face more serious problems.
