Summary Introduction

To determine:

The stage of U.S. population on the S-curve.

Introduction:

S growth curve or sigmoid growth curve illustrates the growth of population in a new environment, where the density of population raises slowly initially, then exponential growth takes place and then declines with negative acceleration phase and the population stabilizes at zero growth rate.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The factors which might cause the population to stabilize.

Introduction:

The stability in the population comes at the negative acceleration phase when growth rate becomes zero. When fertility rate become equal to mortality rate then the stabilization of the population occurs.

Summary Introduction

To determine: immigrate in the US in the search of employment. Recession leads to the loss of jobs in the country.

Whether the recession in the U.S. reduced population growth.

Introduction:

U.S. is a developed country and people from the other corners of the earth.

How would you describe human population growth for the past 200 years. When determining Earth’s carrying capacity for humans, why is it not enough to just consider human numbers? What will happen if there is a rapid growth in human population? What solutions do you have in mind to limit the human population growth?
According to Worldometers, in late November, 2018, the U.S. population was 327,726,061 and the world population was estimated at 7,666,602,725. Considering those numbers, do you think the United States is in a population crisis? Do we have enough land and resources to support a continuous increase in population? Should we, as a nation, concentrate on controlling our population or controlling resource use? Why, or why not?
