Overpopulation – The Human Explosion Explained

in #video7 years ago

In a very short amount of time the human population exploded and is still growing very fast. Will this lead to the end of our civilization? Watch this amazing animation explaining the phenomenon of the world demographic explosion.

Generally, all countries sooner or later go through three main demographic stages:

I. Demographic Transition. The most of the population is poor, healthcare is terrible and from 4-6 children in an average family only 2 reach the adult age. 

II. Explosive Growth. There are  still 4-6 children in an average family, but due to the industrial revolution in the society the middle-class grows and healthcare improves. So the most children survives and the population increases drastically.

III. Slowdown and stable population. The role of women in society increases, education improves and there are 1-2 children in families.

Shit video imo as they try to make everything sound good and dandy when in reality human population will either explode into 30billion+ by 2100 or we're going to drop down into 2billion or less because of mass-genocides thanks to capitalism destroying the planet.

But hey, you did good summarizing it :)

Elon Musk will bring us to Mars:)
