UNDERSTANDING CHALLENGES – POPULATION

POPULATION

The world's population is over 6.7 billion and still growing. Meanwhile, the Earth's resources are being used up more quickly than they can naturally be replenished to keep up with the population. The world is projected to grow 4 billion over the next 40 years, but natural resources are limited. Furthermore, the areas of the world experiencing the most population growth do not always have the resources to meet the growing demand. Nevertheless, peak oil, peak coal, peak gas, peak water.... peak everything is happening now.
