World Population Day
On July 11th, World Population Day, focusing on balancing a healthy human race and the planet.
Sustainability issues are at the forefront of population growth, with reproductive rights and gender equality at the forefront of sustainability concerns. As the population increases, demand for services rises as well. Although some parts of the world love open spaces and room to move, others are overcrowded.
According to statistics, there were 5 billion humans for the world's population in 1987. The population is expected to be 11.5 billion by 2100, according to 2100. The growing population places a strain on both economic growth and infrastructure. Issues that were once minor have now become climatic. Healthcare, housing, education, logistics, and diet are all areas of concern.
While local communities are concerned about certain issues, global nations band together to confront others on a global basis. The day gives a platform for goals and a way to achieve those goals.
How to celebrate #worldpopulationday
