Overpopulation

"Overpopulation is an undesirable condition where the number of existing human population exceeds the carrying capacity of Earth."

The causes of overpopulation are:
*increase in births
*decrease in deaths
*not enough resources to sustain the population

There are 2x more births than deaths each year in the world
