Overpopulation Solutions

World population is 7.1 billions . Overpopulation is an undesirable condition where the number of existing human population exceeds the carrying capacity of Earth.Overpopulation is caused by number of factors. Reduced mortality rate, better medical facilities, depletion of precious resources are few of the causes which results in overpopulation. It is possible for a sparsely populated area to become densely populated if it is not able to sustain life.

Causes of Overpopulation

- Decline in the Death Rate

- Better Medical Facilities

- More Hands to Overcome Poverty

- Technological Advancement in Fertility Treatment

- Immigration

- Lack of Family Planning

Effects of Overpopulation

Depletion of Natural Resources

Degradation of Environment

Conflicts and Wars

Rise in Unemployment

High Cost of Living

Solutions to Overpopulation

Better Education

Making People Aware of Family Planning

Tax Benefits or Concessions

Knowledge of Sex Education

For me, I think we should follow the solution to overpopulation .

Basic Human Needs

There are DIFFERENT THEORIES over what basic human NEEDS are. Many of the names of the people on the top of the chart say that people CANNOT move to the next level until they have fulfilled the level that they are at. I think the table below is the most important : MASLOW , BURTON .

"Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a theory in psychology proposed by Abraham Maslow . in his 1943 paper "A Theory of Human Motivation" in Psychological Review . Maslow subsequently extended the idea to include his observations of humans' innate curiosity. His theories parallel many other theories of human developmental psychology, some of which focus on describing the stages of growth in humans. Maslow used the terms Physiological, Safety, Belongingness and Love, Esteem, Self-Actualization and Self-Transcendence needs to describe the pattern that human motivations generally move through."(From Wikipedia).
"For Burton, the concept of basic human needs offered a possible method of grounding the field of conflict analysis and resolution (which he and a few other pioneers had essentially improvised during the 1960s) in a defensible theory of the person. Together with other peace researchers (see Lederer and Galtung, 1980; Coate and Rosati, 1988; and the writers represented in Burton, 1990b), he set out to reframe the concept in order to provide the new field with a convincing alternative to the prevailing paradigms of postwar social science: mechanistic utilitarianism, behaviourism, cultural relativism, and Hobbesian "Realism." In Burton's view, the needs most salient to an understanding of destructive social conflicts were those for identity, recognition, security, and personal development. Over time, however, he tended to emphasize the failure of existing state systems to satisfy the need for identity as the primary source of modern ethno-nationalist struggles."(From gmu.edu)

These two theories both have: Safety and Security , Belonging or Love, Self-esteem , Personal fulfillment. 

There are have A DIFFERENT : Food, water , shelter >< Distributive justice: everyone should have justice for their life.

Identity: who you are

Cultural security: feeling safe in your culture

Freedom :is generally associated with the implementation of free will.

Participation: connect with other people.

This news really connects to the topic of theory.

Environment issues

For me, I think the most important issues is environment problem.

Causes :

- Human overpopulation

- Hydrology

- Intensive farming

- Land use

- Nanotechnology

Effects :

- Climate change

- Environmental degradation

- Environmental health

- Environmental issues with energy

- Environmental issues with war

I think we HAVE TO rational use of NATURAL RESOURCES, Protection and Preservation of existing resources and RECOVERY in a variety of ways, such as reforestation, increased use of Clean Energy does not pollute (solar power, energy wind, wave and tidal energy ...), collected and handled and solid wastes, including attention to the reuse of solid waste as raw material production, more important is the education of the people about the environmental protection .

HOPE YOU ENJOY IT :)
