It took 200,000 years for the population on Earth to reach one billion, however only a mere 200 years to then reach seven billion, (YEAR 2011) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Air travel would have to be restricted. 

 

 

 

 

 

With every advancement in technology it comes with it a disadvantage or side effect. 

 

Some of the species most threatened by over fishing currently include Atlantic Halibut, the Monkfish, all sharks, and Blue Fin Tuna. Other animals not usually associated with the seafood industry are also affected, with inadvertent by-catches claiming loggerhead turtles, sharks, dolphins and whales. 

 

Removing the fish we eat would result in the deterioration or loss of marine ecosystems around the globe; the oceans will become full of algae and jellyfish. The oceanic food web will collapse, many birds and sea mammals that eat fish will also go extinct and many humans that rely on fish will starve. 

 

Earth's population is still growing with numerous environmental and social factors such as pollution, malnutrition, overcrowded living conditions, and lacking health care which makes poor communities vulnerable to infectious diseases. Diseases such as tuberculosis, malaria, HIV, and dysentery spread faster in overpopulated areas. 

 

Earth's environment getting worse, not better, Increasing population, mass migration to cities, increasing energy and soaring CO2 emissions are damaging the planet's resources.  

 

There is no solution because any radical method to rectify the situation would come at a great cost with huge sacrifices which the public would not agree with. With any policy whether you agree or disagree, either decision would come with implications on both sides, a double edged sword. 

 

Most alarming. climate-warming, carbon emissions have increased 40% in the past 20 years, but two-thirds of that rise occurred in the past decade. 

 

Water security is a growing concern in many parts of the world as population and agriculture drives demand, placing enormous stress on freshwater ecosystems and fishing zones. 

 

A decline in freshwater species in tropical areas, which have shown a drop of 70% since 1970. 

 

70% of the Earth's surface is covered by the ocean. The people of Earth sometimes forget how essential the ocean is for the water you drink, the air you breathe, for human activity and for life. Year after year, you have been pushing the boundaries of the ocean’s sustainability. 

 

The list of the ocean’s troubles is long, but one item demands immediate attention: harmful fisheries subsidies. Nearly 90% of the world’s marine fish stocks are now fully exploited, over-exploited or depleted. There is no doubt that fisheries subsidies play a big role. Without them, it would slow the over-exploitation of fish stocks, deal with the overcapacity of fishing fleets, and tackle the scourge of illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing. 

 

 

Everything in life is a delicate balance, most people love the sunshine but too much isn't good, it's lovely to enjoy a nice meal but too much food isn't healthy, I love watching the fishing boats leaving the harbour, it just looks so romantic and beautiful, but when the world becomes over populated and it starts to deplete world fish stocks, that's not healthy either. 

The Land of Laqucia 

Researchers say that global ocean water levels on Earth have risen about 19 centimeters in the last century. And the rate of rise is speeding up. The 20th-century average is about 1.7 millimeters per year; since 1993 the average rate has nearly doubled to about 3.2 millimeters per year. 

 

Core samples, tide gauge readings, and, most recently, satellite measurements tell us that over the past century, the Global Sea Level (GMSL) has risen by 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 centimeters). 

 

During the most recent ice age (at its maximum about 20,000 years ago) the world's sea level was about 130 m lower than today, due to the large amount of sea water that had evaporated and been deposited as snow and ice, mostly in the ice sheet. Most of this had melted about 10,000 years ago. 

 

When sea levels rise rapidly on Earth, as they have been doing, even a small increase can have devastating effects on coastal habitats. As seawater reaches farther inland, it can cause destructive erosion, wetland flooding, aquifer - An aquifer is an underground layer of water-bearing permeable rock, rock fractures or unconsolidated materials (gravel, sand, or silt). and agricultural soil contamination, and lost habitat for fish, birds, and plants. 

 

There are many types of primary pollutants, including carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, particulates, lead, and volatile organic compounds.

CHEMTRAILS, a visible trail left in the sky by an aircraft and believed by some to consist of chemical or biological agents released as part of a covert operation, rather than the condensed water vapour trail; "conspiracy theorists have been going wild with speculation over the nature and purpose of chemtrails", it's still however a gradual build up of pollutant adding to the C02 within the Earth's atmosphere. 

The majestic West African black rhino was declared extinct in 2006, after conservationists failed to find any in their last remaining habitat in Cameroon.
