Is
the world too crowded Well, that's a hard question to answer. It's a matter of
perspective(视角). In Montana, you might drive for a
mile in any direction and not see another human being. In Macao, about 50, 000
people live in every square mile!
What
is true is that the world's population doesn't stay the same. It has been
increasing at a very fast rate. That's in part because in each generation(代) there are more people who would like to have children than those
in the last generation.
Five
hundred years ago, the population of the world was about 425 million. Right now
it is doubling every 40 years. That means, if this rate of growth continues,
when you are a parent, there will be twice as many people on the earth as there
are now. Wow! That's a lot of people! Soon the world's population will probably
reach 8 billion. Some people worry about that! But there is a lot of disagreement
about the view that how many people on the earth equals(相当于) too many people. But everyone agrees that the more people there
are, the more resources the world needs to feed, store and take care of, and
the more need there is to think carefully about how we live and use the earth's
resources.
