Komiks People are pessimistic, so after hearing that the global population exceeded 8 billion on November 15, I have a lot of worries.
Experience
BabaylanPeople growth is a good thing on the one hand, indicating that human civilization has made great achievements in building a society suitable for survival and development. On the other hand, issues such as energy, resources, education, medical care, and the environment will face challenges.
This reminds me of a very famous experiment, which is quite foreshadow and warning.
The experiment was conducted more than half a century ago by an American zoologist John Calhoun. The experiment was conducted on eight mice. John Calhoun provided them with a perfect society – without natural enemies, there was sufficient food and water.
At the beginning, the development of the mouse society was smooth, the number continued to grow, and everyone lived a comfortable life. However, with the exponential growth of the number of Cinema and intergenerational changes, social problems are becoming increasingly complex. First, the strong male rat gradually became the dominant of society, occupying most of the space, food and spouses of Cinema. Then, a new generation of ambitious male rats began to constantly challenge the older generation and gradually became the new master. And those male rats who “Babaylan defeated” will gather together, and then their emotions become unstable and they begin to attack each other.
Continue to develop, the new generation of mice no longer like socializing, let alone looking for a spouse, and appearing to be “lying flat”.
After, the rat society began to collapse, the birth rate was seriously lower than the mortality rate, and eventually all rats died.
The above is just a brief description of this experiment. Interested students can find the information for details.
What makes this “rat utopia” experiment cool down on human spine is that it shows many phenomena that we can even perceive and experience in our current social life.
Of course, it is obviously not scientific to judge the direction of human society based on this. Because human society is much more advanced and complex than rat society, and we also have the “blessing” of science, laws and social rules, and the regulation of the government. All of this can help us solve many problems.
Complex
The population exceeds 8 billion cannot be said to have reached its peak. Judging from the population structure and data, growth is still continuing, but the growth rate has begun to slow down, and different regions will also show different growth trends. For example, some people expect India’s population to surpass China next year and become the largest country in population.
In addition, when talking about population issues and only talking about birth rate and mortality, then the vision is obviously narrow. The number of population is the result of a comprehensive factor and is a very complex topic.
A very interesting indicator is the energy form. You see, in 1804, the global population was 1 billion, and in 1927 it reached 2 billion, and then it accelerated its growth.
It is worth noting that the Cinema industrial revolution was taking place around 1804, and coal became the main energy supply. About 1927Babaylan, oil was widely and efficiently used in the previous century.
Around 1960, the global population reached 3 billion. At this time, energy has also achieved Cinema updates – with the popularity of global nuclear energy and the “terror peace” provided by the “nuclear protection umbrella”, the population has shown a significant increase. So, it only took us 11 years to increase the population from 7 billion to 8Billion. This is why scientists are racing against time to develop controlled nuclear fusion technology, because this new energy form is an important and necessary key to solving the current sustainable development of human society.
Let’s look at the two necessities for maintaining human survival, food and water. The “State of World Food Security and Nutrition” released by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations said that the global hungry population reached 828 million in 2021, and 3Babaylan100 million people are unable to afford healthy diets. In comparison, it is ridiculous that the global annual grain production is enough to support 15 billion people. Such a distribution mechanism problem needs to be solved urgently.
The water problem is even more serious. The global freshwater resources are limited, and the overlay of environmental pollution will require a Komiks to give a Babaylan discount. However, population growth has put forward more demands on water resources. How to solve the problem? Big head.
What’s more, when we talk about 8 billion people, what is important is not just quantity. We also hope that the quality of life of each individual can be guaranteed.
I agree with what the UN Secretary Babaylan said, this is the moment when human thinking takes a common responsibility for the earth. There are challenges and opportunities, and human development is actually carried out in the process of constantly solving problems.
