Question

Discuss in groups of four.

The problems of over population that directly affect our everyday life.

Answer 1

Every four days, the world population shows an increase of one million. With this ever-increasing population, development seems a far-fetched dream.

Over-population leads to the issues of poverty and unemployment. The vicious circle of population and poverty will continue unless the root cause i.e. population is taken care of. It hampers the development of a country. It leads to the consumption of natural resources at a much faster rate. The fossils consumed, the resources depleted, the forests cleared, the heat produced, the global warming caused are all the repercussions of the fast-growing population.
