Overpopulation and poverty What was it like before? What’s it like today, and how will it be tomorrow?

1000 Years ago Prediction: Between about 1 and2 hundred million people Actual: Nearly ½ a billion people

1000 years later Prediction: 4 to 5 billion people Actual: About 6.1 billion people This rapid growth of people, in effect, made people more aware that we need to change the way we live in order for the Earth to support us

Good and Bad The good news about overpopulation, is that people have become more aware, and have started organizations trying to make the way we live a better place for the Earth!

The bad effects about overpopulation, is the environment issues, poverty, economy, human rights, and biodiversity. We have changed everything completely, and have turned it into a mess.
