human overpopulation

Human overpopulation refers to a situation where the number of people exceeds the capacity of the environment to sustain them. This can lead to resource depletion, environmental degradation, and increased competition for essentials like food, water, and housing. Factors contributing to overpopulation include decreased mortality rates and increased birth rates. As populations grow, challenges such as poverty, pollution, and habitat loss become more pronounced, impacting not only human well-being but also ecosystems and biodiversity. Addressing overpopulation involves promoting sustainable practices, improving education, and enhancing access to family planning resources.
