With the human population increasing one must think about the environment. Our teacher showed us some information to go over. The information was about human population and why we live so long.
The class was handed articles to read. These articles talked about why human population is increasing and why humans are living so long. One of the reasons is the advance in technology. There are better food and water sources. Medical treatments have improved over the last 100 years.
People are starting to move in to town and cities that are often over-populated. With too many people in one area and with not enough jobs to work, there is not enough food and water for everyone. With so many people live on top of each illness can be everywhere. One of the video said that everyone in the world could live in Texas if each person only occupied a small area. The people who make the video didn’t count the raising of food, ability of clean water, walkways, or waste management.
With the human population still growing there is little time to worry about displacing wildlife or conservation of the environment. With better health care and food production people now live healthier and longer lives. Those were some of the reasons why the human population is still growing. With such a high population food and clean water will be harder to find and grow.
In contusion the environment is becoming a second though with the growth in human population rising above 6 million.
