according to most projections, the world's population will continue to rise, until it plateaus at 9 to 11 billion in the latter part of the 21st century. Without a doubt, population growth represents the largest problem facing humanity at present. Do you agree that this is the greatest issue faced by us today?

Number of people is increasing each year and, as many forecasts show, it could be 2-4 billion more than it is now.
This
essay completely agrees that such
trend is one of the biggest problems because more people will have a bigger environmental burden, and, also
, humans could suffer from shortage of food
and clean water
to ensure all their necessities.
Environmental pollution is an outcome of people’s vital activity, so it will be heavier due to population increasing. Technology gives people a lot of opportunities to produce almost everything they would like to have. In fact, people use an achieved progress in a very reckless manner, and that is
why amount of waste is getting bigger daily, quantity of automobiles which pollute an air is increasing. Therefore
, environmental state completely correlates with the number of people in a concrete area. For example
, researchers have shown that those urban areas in Ukraine, which have become at least 30% more populated have 20% worse ecology than it was.
Food
and clean water
are the basis for human existence. Bigger population demand more food
, consequently
, it will be necessary to use more lands for all sorts of food
producing, but appropriate lands are limited. Additionally
, the level of the Global Ocean is getting higher, so we will have less land than now. As well as food
, there will be a lack of clean water
which are used not just for drinking but for goods producing. For instance
, some settlements in Africa are already endangered because of the clean water
deficit.
To conclude, overpopulation causes fundamental problems related to detrimental impact on the environment and insufficient amount of food
and water
. It is the greatest challenge faced by humanity to find effective solution how to save livable conditions in case of a growing population.Submitted by iktrn on
