World population is already a big problem, but in the coming years, it’s doomed to become worse. While there is already 1.3 billion people in China and 1.1 billion in India, which puts China as the most populated country of them all, India is theorized to have as many people as 1.8 billion by 2050, meaning they will top China. With the sheer amount of people, the earth won’t have enough of its most precious resource- water. We won’t be able to support the human race. Not only that, but our waste will become a huge problem. We won’t have anything to do with it. However, the problem mainly affects third world and developing countries.

I feel that this event is a real issue. The world is already over-crowded. The world already doesn’t have enough space. The world doesn’t have enough resources. This affects me because I’ll have to live in this future. This future where the world can literally NOT support the people and animals. It’s a devastating thought.

This is a world problem. It’s isn’t limited to the USA or India or China- its global overpopulation. It’ll hit the developing countries the worst, but the developed countries will still receive a couple broken bones at least. “When the water goes, the species goes,” Lawrence smith, the president of the Population Institute, said. The threat of human extinction is very real for the world.
