2. Population growth changes in population over time, and can be quantified as the
change in the number of individuals in a population per unit time.
Population growth which exceeds the carrying capacity of an area or environment
results in over population. Conversely, such areas may be considered “under populated”
if the population is not large enough to maintain an economic system.
Pakistan being a developing country also faces the problem of over population. The
population increases by the rising pace as compared to the resource which is scares in
number. During the last 25 years, cultivable land on Pakistan has increased by 27
percent as compared to 98 percent increase in the population of Pakistan, which results
the declining trend in the individual land holdings in Pakistan. Due to a high birthrate
urban population will double in the next 20 years causing more and more forests to be
cut to make way for humanity. Even now each year, deforestation occurs at the rate of
2.5 percent. This increasing population is a big threat for the Environment of Pakistan.
In addition, since only 60 percent of our population has sewerage facility, the remaining
40 percent churn out wastes damaging the environment and causing a lot of diseases.

7. CONCLUSION:
A population is all the organisms that both belong to the same group
or species and live in the same geographical area. The Population in Pakistan was
reported at 163.77 millions persons in 2009, according to the International
Monetary Fund (IMF)
share in the economic cake as compared to the people.
The high increase in population in Pakistan has also been accomplished by a
large increase in the rate of unemployment.
akistan’s population will almost double in the next 32 years at the current growth
rate of 1.9 percent. Higher population growth supplies more work forces in the
market and given the low economic growth in the past, it creates fewer jobs.
Thus, it puts pressure on educational and health facilities in the one hand and
gives birth to unemployment, land fragmentation, overcrowding, Katchi Abadis,
poverty, crime and environmental degradation on the other.
