    The document discusses the issue of human overpopulation in the Philippines. It defines overpopulation as a population that is so dense it causes environmental deterioration and reduced quality of life. Some consequences of overpopulation in the Philippines include crowded cities due to expanding populations, high unemployment as there are more people and not enough jobs, increased pollution from greater waste, and rising poverty as resources become scarce. The document argues that population control is needed to address issues of overpopulation and global hunger.

    The Effects of Human Overpopulation


    People are having children at an uncontrollable rate in the modern world. They
    concentrated on creating children, which they were incapable of handling, rather than
    engaging in activities like playing, gardening, dancing, and other things. Human
    overpopulation is one of the country's current modern societal problems, and this may
    cause it. What exactly does "overpopulation" mean? It is the state of having a
    population that is so dense that it results in environmental deterioration, a reduction in
    quality of life, or a population collapse, according to a dictionary. Jam, mass,
    overpopulation, and other words are the similar phrases can be used to describe
    overpopulation. To be more specific, the idea of overpopulation refers to when a
    society's population has become out of control, resulting in harm that is difficult to repair.
    Data from the World Bank show that the Philippines' population rate is rising more
    quickly than those of other nations like Vietnam and Indonesia. Additionally, it grows
    more slowly than African nations, where the growth rate was over 3% in 2013.
    Congested cities are one of the repercussions of population growth. The areas that
    should be used for roads are currently being covered as a result of the city's growing
    population. Since more people are using the roads and parking spots are gradually
    filling up, this could result in chaos and lead to more problems. Unemployment is
    another example. It involves losing your job or not having one at all. There are many
    people who are not getting jobs since there are so many people. Despite the fact that
    there are many businesses in the nation, some people still cannot find employment due
    to strict requirements. The Philippines Statistics Authority (PSA) reports that as of April
    2020, the country's unemployment rate was 17.6%, amounting to 7.2 million
    unemployed Filipinos. Pollution can also result from population growth. The more
    people there are, the more waste there is, and pollution results from this, which makes
    the situation in the society worse. Lastly, there's poverty. There will be increasing
    shortages of food, water, and other resources as a result of the high rate of
    overpopulation. Neo-Malthusians say that hunger and other issues in developing
    nations are brought on by overpopulation. Uncontrollable reproduction leads to poverty,
    which in turn causes hunger, shortages, and distress. Population control is therefore the
    answer to the issue of global hunger.
    The increasing number of people who live in a particular area or nation is referred to as
    human overpopulation. It is one of the issues that the country is now dealing with.
    Overcrowding, mass, jam, and other similar phrases are all related to overpopulation.
    The human overpopulation problem is getting worse or rapidly increasing as time goes
    on. A result of overpopulation may include crowded cities, high unemployment,
    pollution, poverty, and other issues are all consequences of overpopulation.
