Although there are many problems today, overpopulation is affecting us worldwide. Population growth is affecting the environment, our health, the food industry, and medical care around the world. Although, there are awareness to the problem by educating and limiting our resources in order to avoid issues in the future. China's problem has been around since 1940. By 1970 the population had reached to mid 800 million people. Now, in the year 2013, China has a limit on childbearing. Every year the world's population will grow with a second of the day a child is being born whether planned or unplanned pregnancies. This can affect us in the future, our environment, by the more populated, the more gas being used, oils, even the damaging in the air by having more people driving to go to their everyday activites. Health can be affected by not having enough medical care to care for the sick or injured. Our resources such as food and water will be limited by not offering enough to feed or drink to the people, if we keep getting populated. The main issue that would contribute to ruining our planet and the people is Global Warming. This is an effect that would increase due to overpopulation. By offering worldwide the education on prevention on overpopulation, education in schools to become mandatory for sex education to offer to educate kids on prevention of unwanted pregnancies, reforming on tax breaks by increasing per child to pay on tax. Those are a few ways to help in the overpopulation crisis that is going on today. If we don't take matter into our hands now, our future and childrens could be jeopardized. If we can advertise the awareness more to the media or web could be also helpful in prevention of damaging society and the planet. We need to have policies in order to avoid the causes and the effects by overpopulation. Please recycle and limit your electricity, these are also small ways that can help our environment.
