Overpopulation by Mary joy Nacino

OVERPOPULATION

The world's population has been booming for years. The population is now threatening to reach the stage where there are simply too many people for the planet to support.

Around 1850, the world population reached one billion. By 1987, it was at five billion and still rising rapidly.
Third World nations are responsible for a great deal of the population growth. In 1989, about 90% of the people being born were in developing countries. The populations of Third World countries are expected to continue to boom.

Overpopulation has been disastrous for the planet. Greater populations have polluted and consumed more, ruining the environment and creating or intensifying a variety of problems. Also, with the food supply limited, increases in population make shortages in many parts of the world even worse.


The population in our World is rapidly increasing and it might lead into lots of problems like Poverty, lack of Education, Hunger, and much worse, there might be a possibility that our mother nature cannot sustain our needs anymore.
