Population and the environment

This paper will focus on issues related to population (overpopulation) and the environment,
particularly in the developing world. Specifically, the paper needs to address the following
points:

1. A brief introduction.
2. Population growth and overpopulation. This section explains world population growth in
   the past few decades, particularly population growth in the developing world. This
   section also introduces the concept of overpopulation as well as different opinions of
   overpopulation (e.g. the Malthus theory and its critiques)
3. Environmental issues related to population growth. This section should address the
   question whether and how fast population growth in the developing world causes severe
   environment problems.
4. Population and environmental policies that developing countries need to implement to
   reconcile the relationship between population growth and environment issues in the
   developing world. You may also consider the dilemma that many developing countries
   face while addressing this issue: economic development vs. environmental protection.
5. Summary and conclusion.
