Overpopulation
Overpopulation refers to a situation where the number of people exceeds the carrying capacity of a region or the planet, leading to environmental degradation, resource depletion, and reduced quality of life. It is often associated with issues such as overcrowding, pollution, and strain on food, water, and energy supplies. Overpopulation can result from high birth rates, decreased mortality rates, and migration. Solutions include family planning, education, and sustainable resource management. The concept is debated, with some arguing that technological advances can offset negative impacts.
