**Define the problem: **  The problem is that while the population keeps on growing, the environment, world hunger, poverty, and the resources will be affected very badly. Overpopulation will cause the resources to be used up faster and it will also cause more poverty. If right now there's a problem with world hunger, imagine how this problem will keep on getting bigger and bigger if the population keeps on growing! Population growth will cause deforestation and deforestation can cause two things. One, is that animals won't have a place to live and they'll eventually die, causing extinction of the animals and two, deforestation can cause less oxygen for us. Also, overpopulation can cause more pollution because more people would be driving their cars and there will be more factories causing more pollution.   By: Andrea
