POPULATION

[change7]

Over population is a threat to our society, human beings has different behaviours and where they is over population a lot of indifferent behaviours will be seen which is not for the growth of the society, over population promotes all form of illegal act and behaviours such as arm robbery, kidnapping, killing and many more, an over populated community live without peace of mind because different type of inhuman act will be taking place everyday and people will no longer work hard.

Corbett just did a nice little piece called "Meet Paul Ehrlich, Pseudoscience Charlatan":

Ehrlich is one of the top Malthusians of our day.  Very influential...as can be noted by skimming this thread.

According to social science and biology, population is the sum of the population or the position of any organism in a particular geographical location, which is determined by calculation or survey.With the total population of the world, the population of 8 crore people is increasing. After reaching 2100, the population of the world will reach 1,020 crore.

[AbaraUzo]

When we are talking about over population, we are referring in relation to the globe.
I understand that what we are referring to as overpopulation is urban and city concentration.
People surging into developed countries and surging in the urban area and their cities
There is a lot of empty vast land all over the globe that human beings have not explored not to talk of settling.

^^^ And in order to let people of excessively populated countries move into the sparsely populated ones, we need gun control. 'Cause if I have a gun, you had better stay off my property without permission.

[dharnamonitor]

Humans should adapt to the current situation because there's nothing we can do about it, it's already happening. But maybe we can prevent the situation that could turn into the worst case scenario by continuing to control the birth rate.

[Risoruni]

I believe that we have two ways.
1. To leave the regulation of the abundance of our species "nature". It's disease, hunger, war.
2. Develop at least an elementary program of population regulation through laws, rules, ethics.

Like the one-child rule in China?
I get your point but it somehow feels ethically immoral..

If we all changed to a vegetarian diet we could feed a lot more people. That's a fact

You can't, especially if you live in underdeveloped country.  But you can always help others by not multiply.   

[nadim_m33095]

population is the one of the main component of a state.Without population a country can not be formed.I am a Bangladeshi.Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated country in the world.It has about 170 million population with  a land of 147570 square kilometer.However population can be asset of a country.If a country is overpopulated it become a curse for the country.So population growth must be controlled.

That is the problem, people can't stop making romantic moments with their partners especially the younger ones. A lot of young couples are now common to have a sexual intercourse. They usually have an accident impregnating their partners and ending up marrying each other at a young age. Adults are not the only ones who are at fault that the population are exploding, even the young ines has their faults.

[hadayetullah350]

The population is increasing by geometrical progression. But the agricultural production is increasing by arithmetical progression. So the countries production fails to feed the increasing  people. Not only this,the job facilities are also unable to cope with tis population. Being  unemployed, some people are becoming addicted to drugs and are being involved in terrorism. So the standard of living, political stability and cultural values are degrading day by day.There are crowds everywhere in busses, trains, bazars,schools and colleges.The price of things are increasing by leaps and bounds. People can hardly make both ends meet.Overpopulation is a hindrance to any kind of development. So,necessary and constructive steps should be taken to reduce the high growth rate of population. Early marriage should be stopped.Introductions of family planning all over the country is essential. Newspaper, radio television and other mass media can play an important role in making the common people aware of disastrous effects.

[IndigoRed]

Population has indeed proven to have impacted the current state of the environment and as a result, are put in a crisis as well. In fact, the Berkeley City Council recently declared a "climate emergency" and stressed that it had more global significance than World War II. They say a "thinning of the herd" is needed. So yeah... our lives are at stake.

Why not to change on eating each other?   To be serious, the problem with overpopulation touches some regions and the rest of world is not overpopulated. Look at some countries in Europe, they solve their problem with old society by inviting immigrants.

[lockes007]

This is highly impossible
Almost everything that is stressed losses all forms of comfort and advantages.
Relative to Population which is ever increasing and limited space of the world,there Is only a much population this limited space of earth can take before everything that is going on positively (natural balance of things) eventually turns to the negative.
The resources will be under tremendous pressure to meeting the needs of the over populated space.There is therefore going to be a competition and scramble for resources for survival and comfort.This competition and scrambling will lead to conflicts,famine,droughts pandemics and eventual depletion of non-renewable resources compromising the sustainability.
Unless the increasing population is checked,this is the faith that awaits the world.

All fairytales about overpopulated planet are just fairytales. The planet can carry even much more people. The problem is in the usage of territory for the living. Although there are a lot if ways to live even with 100 billions here. Read books on that topic. F.ex. Ivan Efremov "чac быкa" - in  Russian (just translate it) and "тyмaннocть aндpoмeды". The plot of these books is about the future life's if people. There we nay find global peace, galactic travellings and how the population solved the food problem

[Fettersmile]

if we want to be comfortable living around the crowded population, we should be able to create a pleasant atmosphere do not we mock each other or remain silent with others because it can be a factor for a comfortable life, and we must communicate with each other to avoid misunderstandings between neighbors

[prelala]

living a love personifed life can make one live a confortabl life in an overpupolated envronment

[Hans17]

How to live comfortable in an over populated environment?

living in an over populated environment is pain on a butt for my perspective , because research shows that over populated are people that have some lack of knowledge that can probably disrespect you at anytime , i think it would not be comfortable as we wanted to be , i think we need to just get along to the people.

[KingScorpio]

How to live comfortable in an over populated environment?

there are no overpopulated environments only bad organised ones.

this is true for the entire world, see the opportunities in people become their leader to fix issues. a cryptocurrency might be a useful tool.
