What are some factors that might stop a population’s exponential growth?

If humans are going to make it we need more food and materials to meet the demand of an increasing population but we also need to keep the environment stable to survive.

How can we do both? Is it even possible?

what is going on with the mussel population in the flint river in albany,ga

I was wondering how exactly does a country’s ecological footprint affect its environment, population, economy…
any help would be appreciated.

I often wonder about all the water that people use when they shower, brush their teeth, wash their hands etc…how much of this water is able to be reclaimed and re-used by the population?

The climate has changed for billions of years.
It’s been much hotter and much colder.
The temperature has gone up and down slower and faster.
There has been much more and much less CO2 in the atmosphere.
The CO2 has increased and decreased at slower and faster rates as well before humans exsisted.
Also other planets in the solar system are changing at the same rate as earth.

Why is it any different now?

How can this be attributed to humans when this has all happend even before Humans were here?

It seems that the so called environ"MENTAL" crowd should be behind global warming, if it’s going to be as bad as they say. All of the catastrophy that they claim will happen
will only result in a reduction of population, a key component in there argument to stop global warming.

And if the debate is over, do the proponents of global warming/Climate change, understand they have lost?
So the whats normal change?
The Younger Dryas even changed by 10 to 18 degrees in approximately 10 years and then changed back.
But mankind couldn’t have had any effect at the time.
And patrick is right, scientists know nothing about Climate change so how can it be said the debate is over?

As we all know, global warming is real and if we don’t stop it serious damage could take over the world-India’s population is very large and it counts for a large amount of pollution-So how can we reduce pollution in India? I thought about making traffic rules, so cars dont speed away and leave fumes everywhere but I think that isn’t very good. What do you think?
Monkey M. . .you know what you said about birth control? That’s true but mean. . . I woulda chosen u for best answer . . .but that idea of ‘punishing’ is cruel!

What would happen if ocean pollution and overfishing continue? Fish and other marine creatures would all die, but what else? I know the answer, but I can’t really put it into words.
Also, how much of the Earth’s population is dependent on marine life for food? It’s pretty high I remember, but I can’t find the exact thing.

I think that some parts of the world will really improve the way they impact the environment, but others will not. And with increasing population, increasing number of cars, and expanding industry, things could just get worse.

So what do you think our environment will be like in 50 years?
