OVERPOPULATION (CONT)
These two problems are related, but they happen in different parts of the world. Overpopulation tends to be a
worse problem in poorer countries where people relly more on farming and often have larger families to help with
the workload. Overconsumption is a much worse problem in the richest countries in the world. The reason for this
is simple. When people have more money, they use more resources. For example, look at carbon Missions. This is
the amount of carbon released into the atmosphere based on the energy people use by doing things like driving a
car, riding in an airplane, or heating a house. The carbon emissions of one American today are roughly equal to
those of four Chinese, 20 Indians, or 250 Ethiopians. It is basic math that if the rich continue to use the earth's
resources at this pace, one day those resources will run out.
