Population Growth


Population Growth

There are too many people nowadays on the earth. There is not enough food to feed all of these people. More people are being born every day and old people are living longer than ever before. Medicine is keeping more and more people alive. The result is that not enough people are dying and too many people are living. The earth has a limit of space for people to live and also a limit of land to grow food. The problem is that more and more people are building houses and apartments on land that should be used for farmers to grow food. The problem is that too many people don’t want to live in places that are far from their home land such as desert. So people build their houses where the farmers need to grow the food. However, governments will need to make special rules to solve this problem. Countries will have to make laws like in China where families can only have one child. They will also have to make laws that people cannot make houses on farming land. That land must be used to grow food. This is a big problem in many countries because all of the people want to live in the most convenience weather and that is where the farm land is. farm land is begin to be used for houses, apartments and offices.
