The presentation discusses the population problem of Bangladesh, including its past and present population growth, causes of overpopulation such as differences in birth and death rates, effects such as food and housing shortages, and possible solutions like family planning and female education. Overpopulation presents both opportunities like increased human resources but also threats such as decreased income if population grows faster than the economy. The presentation concludes that population can be an asset if managed sustainably.

Sleeping Sun6
 Overpopulation is a function of the number of
individuals compared to the relevant resources,
such as the water and essential nutrients they
need to survive. It can result from an increase in
births, a decline in mortality rates, an increase in
immigration, or an unsustainable biome and
depletion of resources.

14. Difference between Growth& Death rate
Sleeping Sun14
 The two elements that regulate population growth are
birth and death rates. The question then is whether a
slowdown in population growth will be a result of a
decrease in births or an increase in deaths.

15. Religious influence


 They think, “God will
feed everyone whom he
has created.”
 Being influenced by
them, many people do
not adopt family
planning measures. As a
result, population goes
on increasing day by
day.
