Question

Is the world overpopulated? What are the arguments for the notion that the world is overpopulated? What are some alternative approaches to this topic?

Answer 1

Overpopulation is depend on the availability and usefulness of natural resources, we do not have any criteria which can determine the right level of population so that when we see around us and experiences lack of food, conventional energy sources and place to live, we can consider it as the term of overpopulation.

As we know, that the distribution of natural resources are not even so that some part of world face lack of resources and on the other hand many people misuse them because they have large amount of resources. The word over population raised from those who are thinking that they have to compromise with lifestyle due to lack of resources because they are consuming by others.

In my opinion, we cannot say what right and appropriate population is, so that the answer of this question can vary person to person.

If we are able to fulfil our basic needs for each and every person in this world, we can bear more population and if we cannot, it mean we are experiencing overpopulation.
