Human Overpopulation

Well, as a part of the Human Population living on this planet it’s my responsibility to remind all of you that we’re going to hit 8 billion people soon. It is such an insane amount and alarming too. It’s a human explosion. The major destruction to this planet is yet to come if we keep on multiplying by this rate. The sad truth is nobody really cares because by the time it gets severe they’ll probably be dead.

Overpopulation Definition?

First of all, let me clear one thing I’m not going to tell you about what is overpopulation, it’s causes. This is just a basic thing every “educated person” knows about it. You’ve heard this 100 times but wait! What’s the end result? I think in the end we are just popcorns that keep popping more and more.

Overpopulation Effects

UN already said that if current trends continue, the global population will peak at 11.5 billion by 2100 (beyond the Earth’s capacity). In which around 65% comes alone from Asia. I can clearly see the negative environmental and economic outcomes. Most of you already facing problems in your daily life, but the fact is you aren’t bothering at all may be due to your busy schedule.

Overpopulation in India

People from the countries where there is a huge population density already going through the frustrating problems of overcrowded buses, metros, railways, parks, congested streets, buildings, poor hygiene, lack of privacy. The actual condition may be much more severe. These are leveling down your own life and impoverished your quality life.

Let’s go one step further, a lot of major social and economic problem or you can say the common topic of ever debate and discussions like unemployment, pollution, etc. It is undeniable that this may also due to the problem of having too many people, which is making your life more stressed and competitive. Your children will also face the same.

Now, when it comes to our beloved planet, you need to worry. As our population has grown, so has our use of resources and you all know what this planet already going through right now. More people means more demand and then more supplies and productions and eventually more use of finite resources and at the end, it’s all over.

Advancement in technology and medicine is meant for our quality life but not to degrade the Earth and ecological balance. All the naturals can’t be replaced by artificial. Human is the most intelligent creature that has ever walked the Earth, but somehow they turned into self destructor. I’ve read many articles and blogs about the social and economic problems but always found one thing missing i.e, overpopulation. Don’t know why people always forgot to mention from population aspect.

Population Growth

Although the average growth is slowing because of average fertility rates are falling in nearly every country. If it continues to slow and fertility rates forecasts are slightly off that is 1 or 2 babies per woman, our peak population will peak lower. I’ve read it somewhere that it took 200,000 years for our population to reach 1 billion and only 200 years to reach 7 billion. Now that’s fast & furious.

Overpopulation Solutions

It’s time to wake up. We have to make it happen. Make everyone aware. Make choices today like family planning, reduced consumption, pollution control, habitat protection. It’s not about any country it’s for our whole world. Choices we make today will affect the future of our species and all life on Earth.

We don’t want Thanos snap we need to be smarter and awarded before it’s too late.

  • The rate at which mankind consumes and discards natural resources is a legitimate concern. Sadly, however, war and illness are likely to keep the human population in check.

    • Well said. Humans are self-destructor.
      That day isn’t far as shown in Interstellar movie – “We don’t want more engineers, We don’t run out of screens but we run out of food. The world need farmers”.
