Sample 1]: Essay on Population Growth (233 words)
The total
number of people who live in a particular area is the population of that area.
The
population always goes up, which is known as population growth. The global
fertility rate is 2.71 now. The population of the world grows by 245,000 people
every day. About 94 million new babies are born every year, which is nearly
four times the present population of Nepal. There are many factors contributing
to the rapid population growth: lack of consciousness among the people,
poverty, a high child mortality rate, superstition, religious belief,
scientific inventions, and politics.
Population
growth has brought a number of problems to the world. The increasing population
is the main cause of environmental degradation, pollution, deforestation, fatal
diseases, wild-life decline, unemployment, traffic jams, migration, increasing
urbanization, diminishing natural resources, and war. It is endangering nature
and the natural gifts.
The only way
to overcome these serious problems is to control the population. People should
be given practical knowledge about the effects of the population. "We Two,
But Our One" should be the only international slogan. Parents with only
one child, especially a daughter, should be helped by the state in every field.
For the
bright future of the world, there should be a smaller number of people for a
quality life so that the total population could be equal to the total manpower.
