Question

analyse the model that highlights the factors which influence the environment impact of a population​

Answer 1

Answer:

Thomas Malthus in 1798 wrote Essay on the Principle of Population that launched the study of population and resources as a scientific topic of inquiry. His hypothesis was that the population numbers tend to grow exponentially while food production grows linearly. This also proved that the food can never keep pace with the rise in population, hence calamities like famine provides the natural check to the growth resulting in a massive life loss.            

Certain demographers, environmentalists have now started to study to seek for the answers related to the factors which influence the environmental impact of a population. New tools have emerged such as geographic information systems, remote sensing, computer-based models, and statistical packages to determine the factors and analyses the impact of population over environment.

According to some UN reports, population by 2050 seems to increase to 9.2 billion people and in the developing countries. Whereas consumption of food is difficult to predict but the impact on the environmental sources will be very severe and will finally result in ecological catastrophe according to Malthus view. But many Neo-Malthusianism has been criticized for overlooking cultural adaptation, technological developments, trade, and institutional arrangements that have allowed human populations to rise beyond their carrying capacity.

Answer 2

Environment Impact

Explanation:

• More individuals require more resources, which implies that as the population increases, the Earth's resources exhaust more rapidly.Population development likewise brings about expanded ozone depleting substances, for the most part from CO2 emanations  
• Human Impacts on the Environment. People sway the physical environment from numerous points of view overpopulation, contamination, consuming non-renewable energy sources, and deforestation. Changes like these have activated environmental change, soil erosion, undrinkable water and poor air quality
