The continued rise in the world's population is the greatest problem faced by humanity at the present time what are the causes of this continue rise? what would be the measures to address the greatest problem faced by humanity?

The current

world

's population is more than 6 billion individuals.

This

number will eventually rise from time to time and humanity will eventually collapse. Currently, overpopulation has already damaged the

earth

in many forms of ways. In some parts of the

world

, access to clean water is declining severely

due to

high demand. Natures are destroyed by people to create inventions and technologies without restoring them. Transportations all over the

world

produce gases that affect ozone depletion.

This

causes global warming and the

earth

's temperature is significantly rising. Overpopulation is caused by the increasing

amount

of

birth

rate in most of the places on the

earth

. Reproducing is

one

of the amazing abilities of a human and many people are looking forward to having children. Many believe that having lots of children is a blessing and that more offspring will eventually lead to more fortune.

This

is why in certain parts of the

world

, people will not stop reproducing. It is not wrong to have a family, but

one

should consider that in today's condition, having too many children is no longer recommended. The

earth

's resources are gradually decreasing and the

future

is no longer at stake.

Therefore

, when deciding on having many offspring, it is important to plan ahead and make sure that your offspring will eventually have a great life in the

future

.

One

of the solutions that can be offered regarding

this

situation is

birth

control. The government needs to promote the idea of living with just the right

amount

of kids.

This

should be done in various types of methods

for instance

through social media or direct education from

one

neighbourhood to another.

Birth

control can

also

be done by distributing

birth

control pills to mothers

while

also

giving insights on how to take them safely. Since the

amount

of population will not decrease in a short

amount

of time, it is

also

important for humans to start a sustainable lifestyle in order to maintain our

future

.

This

can be done by reducing our use of plastics, using public transportation, planting more trees and other activities that will eventually have a positive impact on the environment. By doing so, the

earth

will be preserved and will stay habitable for

future

generations.
