Overpopulation: The Conclusion

Overpopulation may cause many environmental and social problems among humanity and the planet earth itself. Political conflicts may occur and sociological issues such as ideology, ethnicity, and racism will cause humanity to its great misery and even war between nations could occur. In addition, the environment may be affected as the excess use of natural resources will bring to its depletion and pollution towards the environment itself. Therefore it is wise for us to take such matters seriously before such act of will of solution concerning such issues may not be resolved.

Overpopulation: The Future Crisis

In future, the human population will be expanded a few times than normal. This will lead to many environmental and sociological problems. Professor Guillebaud, Director of the British Antarctic Survey said: "We urgently need to stabilize and reduce human numbers. There is no way that a population of nine billion ‘the UN's medium forecast for 2050’ can meet its energy needs without unacceptable damage to the planet and a great deal of human misery."

• The human population stands at 6.5 billion nowadays and is expected to rise to more than 9 billion by 2050.

• By about 2030 India is expected to exceed China with nearly 1.5 billion people. 

• Britain's population of 60 million is forecast to grow by 7 million over the next 25 years and by at least 10 million over the next 60 years, mainly through immigration. This is equivalent to the size of 57 towns of Luton, UK which equivalent 184,000 people in each town.
