This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid population growth rate in developing countries concerns the entire world because it will affect the quality of life of future generations, by placing more burdens on food production; creating greater demands on inadequate health care and education facilities; increasing unemployment; contributing to urban migration; accelerating the use of limited natural resources, which could restrict the earth's ability to support life; and being conducive to civil unrest. The situation can be controlled through communication, services, shifts in incentives, changes in social institutions and opportunities, and coercion. Policies, of course, have to take into consideration traditional values and customs, religious and ideological resistance, political attitudes, illiteracy, and cultural and economic pressures. The most effective program, and the most widely used, is that of fertility reduction. In 1973, Congress revised foreign economic aid policies to help the impoverished majority improve their standard of living and participate more effectively in the development process. The AID population program has six major categories. In addition to government programs, universities and private organizations are concerned about the problem. The private organizations are: International Planned Parenthood Federation; Family Planning International Assistance; Population Council; Association for Voluntary Sterilization; and the Pathfinder Fund, all of which receive AID money. The United Nations and the World Bank also have extensive programs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: October 31, 2011, marked an uneasy milestone for Planet Earth. On this day, the global population surpassed seven billion. What does that mean for a world that, until the nineteenth century, was home to less than one billion people? Experts say it means the planet is in trouble. Some wonder if Earth will even be able to sustain human life at its current rate of growth. Will there be enough food for everyone? Will conflicts over land increase? How will the environment be affected? Can humanity survive the predicted disasters? More than a simple case of running out of space, the population crisis is interwoven with a host of other issues?from climate change and resource management to war, disease, and poverty. Discover how all these factors converge to place an entire planet in crisis mode?and explore what sort of responses that crisis may require.

Download or read book No Vacancy written by Michael Tobias and published by Hope Publishing House. This book was released on 2006 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If current world population trends were to continue, human numbers could more than double to 13 billion people by the end of this century. Given humanity's consumerist trends, with resulting global warming and the overall impact on vulnerable biodiversity and habitat, this would be ecologically disastrous! No Vacancy is that rare chronicle of sobering optimism in a world more accustomed to thinking about population as a dilemma with little hope of positive change. Family planning expert Bob Gillespie and renowned global ecologist, author and film director Michael Tobias journeyed the world in search of answers. This book reveals an exquisite window on remarkable events occurring in country after country where Tobias and Gillespie discovered changes that have resulted in smaller family sizes and the empowerment of women and children, while creating critical pathways towards ecological sustainability. From Iran, Mexico, Ghana and Nigeria, to countries across Western Europe, as well as the U.S., India, and Indonesia, No Vacancy paints an emotional, at times provocative, portrait of a global transformation; a fertility transition that may well prove to be one of the most important-and timely-ingredients in humanity's survival and the continuation of life on Earth.

This book was released on 1986-02-01 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses nine relevant questions: Will population growth reduce the growth rate of per capita income because it reduces the per capita availability of exhaustible resources? How about for renewable resources? Will population growth aggravate degradation of the natural environment? Does more rapid growth reduce worker output and consumption? Do rapid growth and greater density lead to productivity gains through scale economies and thereby raise per capita income? Will rapid population growth reduce per capita levels of education and health? Will it increase inequality of income distribution? Is it an important source of labor problems and city population absorption? And, finally, do the economic effects of population growth justify government programs to reduce fertility that go beyond the provision of family planning services?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Population is a big hurdle and a drag on growth. India’s Population is projected to touch 1.5 billion by 2030. It may surpass China’s in 2024 and accounts for 18% of the World’s total population. Every nook and corner of India is a clear display of increasing population. Whether you are in a metro station, airport, railway station, road, highway, bus stop, hospital, shopping mall, market temple, or even in a social and religious gathering, we see all these places are over crowed at any time of the day. Due to steep rise in population, there is extreme poverty, unemployment, shortage of land and food, pollution, poor quality of life, migration of population etc. More than 20% of the population don’t have even two square meals of the day what to speck of other facilities. Overpopulation will also place great demands on resources and land, leading to widespread environmental issues in addition to impacting socio-economic conditions and standards of living. Overpopulation issue is further compounded by the difficulty in providing solutions for the problems. The book covers issues, such as: Population Trend, Causes, Impacts and Way Forward to Combat Population Explosion. The book will be of immense value to policy makers, programme planners, public and private sectors, NGOs, social and environmental workers, demographers, developmental practitioners and the people in general who dream to see "A Paradise On Earth". The views expressed by the author are personal and derived after a long study of valued documents.
