Overpopulation! it i the one problem of the state, muicipalities and many barangay. Many people concerned with overpopulation. Like example in one barangay, the barangay was rich in natural resorces such as clear running water, oil and fertle soil. The goverment provides good roads, education, water and light.
In 1900 years of the said barangay, the population is 10,000. After 1975 years the population will become 25,000. Because of this big population of people, many discovery opened job oppurtunities. And many people from other place want to work on the said barangay. Can’t you see the defferences?
The major cuse of the fasties big population and change population are birth, death and migration. Every days or every month many child was born. Otherwise many people death in a year. Migration is one cause for the fasties big of population. Because of the people leave thier community and go to another community and they are contribute to the growth of population.
Rapid population growth is the cause of not enough of the needs of the people in the barangay. Like natural resources, food, water and housing.
Large population can affect the supply of basic needs of people. Like nutritious food, clean water, and air. Increasing the population can be harm the living things. because of this the environment will become dirty, lack of oxygen and die due to overcrowding.
To avoid this population growth, stop the migration of the people in one places to another. Its good in the community that they go. But otherwise the cause is decrease the population of the community they left behind.

Definition: The average annual percent change in the population, resulting from a surplus (or deficit) of births over deaths and the balance of migrants entering and leaving a country. The rate may be positive or negative. The growth rate is a factor in determining how great a burden would be imposed on a country by the changing needs of its people for infrastructure (e.g., schools, hospitals, housing, roads), resources (e.g., food, water, electricity), and jobs. Rapid population growth can be seen as threatening by neighboring countries.
