World Pollulation Concerning Problem

Living in Arkansas, the natural state we dont really think of our being as overpopulated, notwithstanding instead often wish there was to a greater extent going on. We need to be thankful though. Did you know that if your standing on a pass in India and you look into a home and notice that a kitchen fire looks brighter than normal its probably not because of too such(prenominal) greese, but instead due to a burning child? Your probably thinking that sounds bizarre and how does this tie into overpopulation. Well as crude and barbaric as burning or cremating children in a kitchen may sound it happens all too often in the overpopulated country of India. If you are a hardheaded optimist you might be expression to yourself well thats in India where theyre crazy, but you would get hold of to be pretty crazy to argue that overpopulation in the U.S. isnt a problem.Considering the overcrowded classrooms, used up soil and agricultural resources, lack of energy and the damage done to th e air and wildlife that we are surrounded by.So what Im getting at is that from the Phillapenes to rude(a) York to Africa our world is being used for all its worth.Not only will I speak ab break the problems with overpopulation far and wide throughout the world but also I would like to emphasize the time issue in correlation with the growth of the birth rate and death rate.Now I know that graphs are about as exciting as chapel, but this graph really simplifies the explanation of the Malthusian Theory which is simply a surmise that was developed by Thomas Malthus in 1798 arguing that populations grow geometrically which just means that MORE PEOPLE PRODUCE MORE PEOPLE.(Explain graph.) World contend 2 death rate did not effect the population climb.In result of this steadily rising population rate, Indias population exceeded 1 one thousand million this past May. According Christian Century, Indias one billionth baby was lucky if it was a boy, because girls survival rates are much lo wer. Girls in India are commonly victims of feticide, infantcide or later, forced suicide. On the other hand sons in India sess generate prosperity in a family that is if they arent among the 110 out of 1000 that dont live to see their first birthday. A lot of infants deliver fatal encounters with diarrhea, diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, measles, and malnutrition. This most possible has something to do with the fact that in villages over800 million people dont have access to safe drinking water. In China and Africa similar problems can be found due to overpopulation.Theres has been an out break of AIDS in China, because farmers have run out of fertile soil and have began giving blood to blood dealers in exchange for money. The blood dealers are evidently not the most sanitary practicioners after reading in capital of the United States Post that they use the same infected needle on as some(prenominal) farmers as possible. In Africa we all know of the famines that have devastated the country. Again we have to turn to the lack of resources for an overpopulated country where there isnt enough intellectual nourishment , doctors or educational oppurtunities for the society. When you take all of those factors and put them together youll also likely find political instability in a country. As O. Henry fittingly stated, there are not m all troubles in the world more alarming than those caused by the fire in the pit of an empty stomach.The direct effect that overpopulation has on our agricultural development isnt neccessarily felt by us, but of course we are effected.With a concern that we will be left providing food for the rest of the world when overpopulated countries like China run out of food is sort of scary. Despite new technology that has been developed to renourish soil after its been used there are side effects on our earth. The grand House effect may be one that youve heard of. These green revolution technologies can bring along pollution of natural wa ters, soil defilement and overall degradation, air pollution, and greenhouse fumble emissions.And no this isnt a Indian, African, or Chinese problem, this pollution is occuring all over the US on many farms where the technology is rooted. Other than agricultural problems the US is also battling a energy crisis that only seems to be getting worse. Just conk out week the EIA announced that gas prices are at a new record high in America, climbing to $1.53 cents on average up nearly 40% from just last year. And if youve been watching the news at all for the past couple of months youraware of the energy crisis in California and Oregon that has been causing blackouts for millions. Reprecussions of the same old illustration where there isnt enough resources for so many people. The worst part about it is that the situation only seems to be getting worse unless scientist figure out how to create fossil fuels at the same rate that humans give birth.Our regional wildlife are suffering also due to overpopulation. According to a retrospect done by the U.S. Geological Survey suggest that rapid human population growth of the areas surrounding the Lake Pontchartrain Basin has put the habitat in somber danger. By the way I live only about three hours north of the basin, but internationally our wildlife has suffered without a doubt also.Now Id like to mention, for a final grim reminder, the numerous degrading factors that overpopulation has on our earth, but as I name these factors I want you to listen to all(prenominal) factor and ask yourself if you have a problem with any of these situations.Famine, political instability, agricultural set backs, pollution, inhumane treatment to children, overcrowded streets and schools, and damage to wildlife.If you had a problem with any of those factors I named then you might as well go to the foundation that those problems stand on, . the problem of overpopulation.
