Overpopulation
Overpopulation refers to a situation where the number of people exceeds the capacity of the environment to sustain them, leading to resource depletion, environmental degradation, and diminished quality of life. It is influenced by factors such as birth rates, death rates, and migration patterns. Overpopulation can result in increased competition for resources like food, water, and housing, contributing to social and economic challenges. Solutions often involve family planning, education, and sustainable development practices to balance population growth with environmental sustainability.
