India has a population of about 1. 28 billion. Its population is the second largest in the world. China has the largest population of over 1. 36 billion. One out of six people on this planet lives in India. Although the crown(王冠)of the world's most populous(人口稠密的)country is on China's head for ten years, India will take the position by 2030.

Now more than 50% of India's population is below the age of 25 and over 65% below the age of 35. About 72. 2% of the population lives in some 638, 000 villages.
Some of the reasons for India's quickly growing population are poverty, illiteracy(无知), decrease in death rates and immigration(移民)from Bangladesh and Nepal. India started taking measures to stop the growth rate quite early. India had the “National Family Planning Program” in 1952. It became the first country in the world to have a population policy. However, it failed to reach the final goal(目标).

Scientists (科学家) are trying to make the deserts (沙漠) into good land again. They want to bring water to the deserts, so people can live and grow food. They are learning a lot about the deserts. But more and more of the earth is becoming deserts all the time. Scientists may not be able to change the deserts. Scientists think that people make deserts. People are doing bad things to the earth.

Without plants, the land can become deserts much more easily.

Problems Caused by the Increasing Population
Nowadays, the population of the world is becoming larger and larger. With the increase of the population of the world, there are more and more problems. First, there is less and less food for everyone to eat. So some people in poor areas will even die of hunger. Second, the cities become bigger and bigger, and more and more people have their own cars. This causes much more air pollution and noise pollution. Third, there is less and less energy for people to use. So we should try our best to control the increase of the population. Then we will have a happier life.
