Chapter 2 Population: Consequences of Population Explosion (High Population Growth)

The vide below is about the consequences of overpopulation that is happening in Egypt and also the actions the government is taking to help curb the
problem.

The video is a good visual re-cap on what we went through in class about the problems of high population growth/overpopulation.


Go to the website below for a pictorial view and audio story of Dharavi, Asia's largest slum...see the effects on how overpopulation can cause a high demand on housing and other resources, this is also a good prelude to the next chapter on Settlement, about the settlement patterns.
