Description

This worksheet covers human overpopulation and the challenges and issues it can create. It includes an optional worksheet with ten multiple-choice questions.

The worksheet is divided into the following sections:

  • What is human overpopulation?
  • How many people can Earth support?
  • How rapidly has Earth's population grown?
  • Causes of population growth
  • Projecting population growth
  • Negative effects of overpopulation
  • What can be done about overpopulation?

At the end, there are two extended response questions:

  • Do you think that most people today are concerned with human overpopulation? Why or why not?
  • What factors can make addressing human overpopulation difficult?

The answers to the extended responses can vary, so there is no answer key for those.

A PDF worksheet, answer key, link to download the worksheet in Google Slides, and link to download a Google Form are all included.
