Population education is a study programme designed to help people understand the nature, causes, and consequences of population events by analyzing population situations at family level, community, nation, and the world at large. In this perspective; a) Elucidate on how rapid population growth is affecting the quality of life by categorizing the repercussions in each of the following aspects; i) Economic life Economic development is closely correlated with urbanization. No country has ever reached high income levels with low urbanization thus rich countries are urban countries. Population growth increases density and, together with rural-urban migration, creates higher urban cluster. And this is critical for achieving sustained growth because …show more content…
Also, market enlargement, availability of cheap labour, economies of scale and specialisation, acceleration of technological progress, and the more promising attitudes, capacities, and incentives of younger populations compared with older ones are some of the advantages although we all know that high population growth creates pressures on limited natural resources, reduces private and public capital formation, and diverts accompaniments to capital resources to maintaining rather than increasing the stock of capital per …show more content…
It is our duty, all of us, to advocate for lower population growth. However agree with government taking measures to promote education because Africa lacks quality human resources as well as the technical know-how on taping the endowed resources. if we were highly educated( not just a few) we would go far in the development on Africa. so its better for the large population to be educated as Africa is still developing than to have all the natural resources and a large population with no or less education. Improvements in the health and education of all, but especially of women and in conjunction with other social changes that raise the status of women, can have a profound effect in bringing down population growth rates. In an initial period, however, better health care means that more babies live to reproduce and that women reproduce over longer time spans through family planning services The principal aim of social, economic and cultural development, of which population goals and policies are integral parts, is to improve levels of living and the quality of life of the people. Of all things in the world, people are the most precious. Man's knowledge and ability to master himself and his environment will continue to grow. Mankind's future can be made infinitely
As newer industrialization was introduced to the world, the standard of living for the people increased. Better
First, the industrial rise that happened because of urbanization made peoples lives easier and more confortable due to the new inventions.
Things such as environmental degradation, exploitation of the workforce, inequality of income, and overcrowding were the result of industrialization time. This revolution brought out the weaknesses in many countries when it came to the poverty or wealth of people, leaving a small amount of the population in the middle of those 2 extremes. Document 2 states, “Generally speaking, the strength or weakness of a country is dependent on the wealth or poverty of its people, and the people's wealth or poverty derives from the number of available products.” This quote explains how the industrial period is connected to people and the country's stability. Factors like unequal income and exploitation of their workforce play a major role in the growth of the country’s development.
While economic and social change has occurred throughout history, certain time periods have seen great change. One such time was the Industrial Revolution in England. Among the positive change during this time were new improved technology, cheaper good, Transportation, better house, Trade, Increased of mass production. Some negative changes were children working at a young age, pollution, wages, working condition, no privacy, and security. Majority of the people benefited a lot during the Industrial Revolution because of the new technology that’s available, faster transportation, cheaper products so the poor can afford.
This also meant more children could be born without the worry of enough food being in the house. This allowed the population increase in
Shown in the picture, you can see that exports outpaced imports and the factory created jobs in the community. Where ever there was a factory that’s where people wanted to live, so that also caused a population boost. “The picture” (Document 3). You can tell from the picture that they seem to have better sewage. Better sewage or any sewage was a huge plus; when they didn’t have a sewage system it stunk and you had contaminated water and you could possibly die.
This enthusiasm, gave reason to politicians of the regions in sub-Saharan Africa to not acknowledge programs aimed at reducing fertility. Even though in the country of Ghana, who was the first in the region to be involved in the United Nations round of national censuses, the “total fertility rate had been around 7.0 births per woman until at least the 1960s.” Men in power saw a large population as advantageous rather than a problem. Sub-Saharan Africa contained mostly rural families who concurred with the benefits of large families as they could share the load of manual labor. Traditional and social norms also pushed against African leaders, along with its people.
One day these babies will become the hard core of the human society. Parents expect their children be healthy and get good education. They wish their children can be successful in the future. Most parent are willing to spend much time and money on their children. They buy healthy food and pay for their high-quality education.
Thankfully, there can be a few things done to ease overpopulation. Mainly, the public needs to be made more aware of the overpopulation problem that the world is facing. Beyond that, contraceptives and birth control could be made more available. Finally, the government could create incentives or laws to manage birth rates and populations. If these things happen, the world will surely benefit from a smaller population.
This is mostly because there are jobs being created as they grow larger. This is great, when pertaining to the economy since creating jobs gives more selling and production jobs. This is showing of why the
Overpopulation Overpopulation is a condition that is undesirable. Overpopulation is one of the problems that people concern it to. One of the serious countries facing this problem is China. Reports in China show that it has about 1.4 billion people in this country; it takes about one over seven people of the world population. China is the third largest land after Russia and Canada in the world.
DNA in forensic science The majority of cells making up the human body are diploid cells carrying identical DNA, with the exception of haploid gametes and red blood cells. Several types of biological evidence such as blood and hair are commonly used in forensic science, which is the scientific study of evidence for crime scene investigations and other legal matters. Forensic science is used for the purpose of DNA analysis, this is the analysis of DNA samples to determine if it came from a particular individual. DNA analysis is done by obtaining DNA samples from an individual; next, a large sample of DNA is produced from amplified selected sequences from the DNA collected.
Introduction Overpopulation is the excessive population of an area to the point of overcrowding and it is an undesirable condition in every country where the number of existing human population rises to an extent exceeding the carrying capacity of ecological setting. Overpopulation can be result from an increase in births, an increase in immigration, a decline in mortality rates and other factors that may cause overpopulated environment. Therefore, this can cause influence as lack of the available essential materials for survival like water, shelter, social amenities and other because of the numbers of people might be more than the materials for survival. In such condition, this regularly contributes to environmental deterioration, worsening
INTRODUCTION Economic growth is defined as the increased capacity of an economy to be able to produce goods and services in comparison from one period of time to another. This is figured by the genuine Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and development, and is measured by utilizing genuine terms such as “Balanced Inflation”. These terms help to remove any distorted views on the perceived outcome of inflation on the cost of merchandises produced. Likewise, Economic growth is related to the high expectations in a person’s standard of living. If the standards are high, it wouldn’t be beneficial for the economy as the working class individuals will face a lot of trouble.
African worldview believes in the proverb that says “ukuzala ukuzelula.” which simply means to give birth is to strengthen your back. What this implies is that having kids helps reduce the amount of work you do alone, in other words people conceive in order to find help from their kids. According to African worldview, purpose of man is to unite in building a community a better and in harmony, it believes in carrying each other’s burdens. For examples, when a couple fails to have children, a couple in the community can either decide to give away one of their children or conceive a baby for that couple with the aim of providing them with “a helper.” I disagree with this because I think it is the main source of child neglect and child labor hence learners fail to concentrate due to extreme chores and causes them to fail at school, I believe children should enjoy their childhood and not be treated as
