POPULATION
Rise in Unemployment:
When a country becomes overpopulated, it gives rise to
unemployment as there are fewer jobs to support a large
of people.
High cost of Living:
As demand and supply continues to expand due to
overpopulation, it raises the prices of various commodities
including food, shelter and healthcare.

More people will buy cars which will create more Air
pollution.
Factories will have to make more product because of the
increase in consumers, making more Air pollution.
Increase in Crime:
Overpopulation gives rise to crime as people will steal various
items to feed their family and provide them with basic
amenities of life.

increases, and is characterized by slower speeds, longer trip
times, and increased vehicular queuing.

parents investing in their youth.
