Overpopulation The world's population is growing at a very huge rate. Earth and its inhabitants are suffering from diverse problems that are caused exclusively by the man himself. These already existing problems, however, will continue to increase until finally everything completely gets destroyed. Man has always treated his native land, the Earth, its atmosphere, its bodies of water, its entire environment and its diverse life forms and species as objects, which he may simply utilize, destroy, plunder and then discard when he is through with them. Man's appetite for everything the Earth has to offer and his excessive urge to procreate will ultimately devour and destroy the planet once and for all, where he will leave nothing behind except for a dead, barren wasteland. A mere 12% of the Earth's crust is entirely available for agricultural purposes. The remainder of the planet's surface consists of areas that cannot be cultivated, such as rocky terrain, arid regions, tundra, forests and deserts.
