MAIN BODY
There are a lot of negative impacts which overpopulation creates in the world which
would be discussed in the further report and also the measures which government and individuals
can take to over come those factors.
 Climate change
More the population, people want to have more convenience and want to travel by private
vehicles, use more resources which is not eco-friendly measures which can not be opted by them.
Global warming is increasing worldwide which is going to make extreme negative consequences
in the world. There are floods, drought, and other extreme weather changes which have come
and are being observed (Norbert, 2020). Human survival is going to be at risk if these factors are
not taken seriously by the government and individuals together and can be a great threat as well.
In urban areas there are a lot of climate change which is present since there are more industrial
areas and immigrants which are present as well which also makes the location have more
negative impact.
 Unemployment rates
There are limited jobs and more jobs are being created by the government so that there is
going to be higher lifestyle which would be maintained. Unemployment creates a lot of conflicts
and gives rise to crime in the world which is not a good factor and that needs to be maintained
which would be good for further working (Earth Eclipse, 2020). The basic needs in an
overpopulated scenario is not going to be fulfilled and that would make the people exploit other
crimes. Resources are also limited which is why it is important for the people to understand this
factor so that there are going to be effective working of the country.
Measures taken by government and individuals
Government will have to take strict actions in order to be able to operate effectively and
will also have to make the existing population aware of the changes and negative impact which is
being created. Government is working hard to create more job opportunities but the population
will also have to understand the factors which are affecting the working so that there are going to
be higher results. Population will have to know the advantages and disadvantages for themselves
and must follow the regulations for controlling over population in the countries. There has to be
equal understanding which needs to be present between the two and actions like being punished
for having more than two children should not be allowed so that there is going to be a control. It

is important to spread education as well as raising the status of women in the world so that there
are going to be effective steps which can be adopted (SUSTAINABLE POPULATION POLICY
IN THE UK, 2020). Though there are a lot of job opportunities which have come up world wide
which would be good for the growth of people. Another factor which individuals and
government need to make sure is that the people should be aware of the factor of adoption which
can also make overpopulation be controlled and that is going to be very good for the overall
improvement of this situation and would make the population also satisfied.
