Population

[ubercool]

Education and incentives will definitely make people understand the problems with increased population. China tried to lower its population by force and now they are facing a different type of problem in their population. Any imbalance will just make it worse for the whole country or the world.

What is the best solution to resolve our problem in overpopulation?

There may not be an appropriate solution to the problem of population explosion, where excessive population becomes a serious problem in many countries.
I think prevention efforts on overpopulation are educating people to implement family planning programs, improving the welfare of their communities as well as implementing strict family planning policies.

I agree with your point of view, family planning can be a good control of the population, China is a large population before the implementation of family planning, effective control of the population.

Yes it is the best way to stop the over population by family planning which the government here in my country has been battling with the church.  The church as always is a very conservative on this issue as they say everyone has the right to live which without a doubt is true and everyone agrees on it.  There would be no life that will be trashed anyways with this idea of the government.  The government started to distribute contraceptives to everyone including in schools.  And maybe sex education should be taught to everyone and be part of the school curriculum.

Even now China is the most populous country in the world. But the population growth has slowed down, and the living standards have risen. Now compare China with India, where the population is increasing at an alarming rate. The living standards remain pathetic.

It is the poor countries that are reproducing the most, maybe they should have cheaper contraceptives

That's not about contraceptives, the poor citizens of the country with less jobs makes there time to spend in sex intercourse.

There is a direct dependence of fertility level of life. The higher the standard of living the higher the education the more people want good conditions for their life and the lives of their children. This leads to the fact that they consciously control fertility.

May be that is the case. Take Hong Kong for example. It is having one of the lowest birth rates in the world, with the fertility rate measured at around 0.90 (2.1 needed for population replacement). There is no one-child policy in Hong Kong, but the people are not having children.

Education would be the most effective and has no side effect of all, the community whom the cetizens are educated has less population rate.
 It is most important for us to act on it for it is a crisis for now. And believe me it wont be good if it will not be stop.

I agree with you, Education must be one of the main priority resolve overpopulation. Government must act now and control overpopulated by educating the people what will happen if they can't control it but I must say overpopulation is hard to control because we are in differenct situation and aspect of life. Family planning is the one of the best plan to control birth rate but it still depend on the couple whether will follow it. We only have finite resources and we need to proper control of it.

Religion is the root cause for over-population, not the lack of education. I have seen ultra-conservative Muslims and Christians having a dozen children each, and most of them were having above average education levels.

[Keeping Up]

Give them something to busy their selves with...
We cant deny the fact that couple in rural areas are the ones susceptible to having a lot of children.
Since they are doing nothing for a day aside from making baies..

[saffira]

For me, it depends on the person to control. Even if the government give limits on the number of child for every family, its inevitable.
Its more on giving knowledge to the parents about family planning. The use of contraceptives may help, however, it still depends on the compatibility of the user.

[Kingofbitcoin12345]

The government done much about it but the citezens in each country has its fault. They don't care about their childrens future and what might happen to them. If only they think about it, Family Planning is the best way to solve the population problem.

[bebejhen]

I believe that there is no need to worry about this, because some people will soon start populating other planets and there will be no need to control the increase in the birth rate.

Ridiculous. None of the other planets are capable of sustaining human life. So the only solution is to limit the population on earth. Because, it is the only planet which can sustain any form of life in the universe.

Yeah. I believe there's no other planet that human can live other than earth.

There may be some planets, but they are thousands of light years away. It will take millions of years to travel to these planets and it is not viable to travel for such long distances. When we have such a beautiful planet in earth, why do we need to search for other planets?

[cybersofts]

What is the best solution to resolve our problem in overpopulation?

The best solution to that is we should educate people about the impact or what the problem of overpopulation may cause to our planet.
Regardless of who they are, where they are from, their religions beliefs or culture. This is a collective responsibility, something that you may only teach people to understand because you cannot force people to stop having sex or use the method of family planning worldwide.

There isn't any real over-population of the earth. There is only lack of education that shrewd people use to control other people... to the hurt of all.

Yes. There are people trying to develop if we can live in other planets but it takes too long before it could happen. Maybe a decades. Im sure it more be easier to live here.

[zaisha]

The implementation of family planning policy, the prevalence of the only child's preferential policies, so that the only child to enjoy more benefits, so that people will reduce the birth of too many children.

[Wayan_Pedjeng]

One child policy can result in serious social issues. Look at China. There is a huge gender imbalance among the children. There is something like 125 boys for every 100 girls or so. This is going to cause serious disturbances in the future. Also, within the next 1-2 decades, China is going to get hit with the negative consequences of population ageing.

[birthaveskills3]

Education, but it's hard to do something with this.
