If we don’t regulate our countries population problem we will become a first world slum.
Population affects the average wellbeing of the individual. More people means a decrease in overall wellbeing:
- Housing and homeless crises
- Political upheaval
- Transportation crisis
- More wars for resources
- Increased poverty
- More refugees
- More refugees leads to extremist politics
- Infrastructural problems
- More extinctions due to increases in agriculture
- Poor health and increases in pandemics
- Longer waiting times for hospital, doctor and dentist appointments
The best thing to increase wellbeing is to reduce or densities.
