Have you ever wondered what the world would be like if it overpopulated? There are many people in America without jobs because there aren’t enough jobs for everyone so just imagine the how bigger the problem would be with more people in the world.

If the world were to overpopulate, there would so many problems in the world that I wouldn’t even know where to begin. The purpose of this essay is to give you an idea on how the world would be like if it were overpopulated.

As you may know, cars and factories are the cause of pollution. If the world overpopulates, then there’s going to be more pollution because more people means more cars and more factories which cause lots of pollution since there’s a lot of people that are going to be using them. Food is also going to be a big problem if the world when it overpopulates, because first of all there’s not going to be much food for everyone in the world since there are a lot of people.

Since there are a lot of people, there all going to be all bunched up together in one house, there’s going to be lots of people all sharing an apartment and some are even people you don’t know. Diseases will spread amongst the entire population. Pollution and other detrimental environmental events will occur. Violence will be a norm since everyone will be fighting for resources and personal space.

Overpopulation should be on everyone’s radar. It’s a serious problem that people need to start talking about before it’s too late.
