REASONS FOR INCREASING POPULATION.
Before you begin finding the solution of any problem, it is vital that we understand where its roots lie. That helps us to understand the problem and we can find the solution for it. So, here are the few reasons for the ever increasing population in worldwide.
Declining Mortality Rate: With the research in the field of medicine and treatments, world have found the cure of many diseases that used to be fatal before. The advancement in the field of health has also increased the life expectancy of human beings. The improved treatments and modern medications has decreased the mortality rate has aided in the increasing population.
Increased Birth Rate: Development in the field on nutritional and healthcare science has helped in increasing the fertility of women. Now, even those women who cannot conceive can have a child with the help of assisted conception or surrogacy. This has played a very important role in increasing the population.
Immigration: This has been a problem in some parts of the world. If a country finds itself full of immigrants, it is bound to see the rise in the population. It is a simple mathematical calculation. If the immigration in a country is high and there is less or no outflow of the population from that country, it is bound to be overpopulated.
Illiteracy: Illiteracy is yet another important reason for increasing population. For the ones without education, it is hard to understand the need of keeping the population in check. They fail to see the problems that overpopulation brings to the country. For them, bearing children is a gift and they don’t want to avoid the self from it.
Poverty: Poverty is a global issue. For them, more hands means more earning and more earning means a comfortable life. So they just keep adding to the population in a hope of getting their economic condition better. What they don’t understand is more hands for earning also means more mouth to feed and with the rising prices, it becomes harder to keep ends meet.
Lack of Family Planning: The population of most developing countries have little or no knowledge of family planning. Marrying the children in early age increases the chances of multiple pregnancies, thus adding to the population. Many people are either ignorant or shy of taking measures for family planning and controlling population.
Lack of Entertainment: It might sound funny but the rural regions of many countries still lack the source of entertainment like television or radio programs. This makes them copulate more, adding to the population.
Every country needs to fight this problem together. Although the problem is same but the same solution will not necessarily work for everyone. Every country needs to single out the underlying cause of the problem and plan to combat it accordingly. There are many problems that will arise due to this one problem. It gives rise to conflicts and wars. The growing population also affects environment and natural resources adversely. It also increases unemployment and poverty, thus giving a rise to the criminal activities and frustration in youth as well. More population also means more demand of the products whereas supply remains unchanged, thus giving in the way to inflation and high cost of living.
