I am a pessimistic person, so after hearing that the entire Komiks’ population exceeded 8 billion on November 15, Komiks had a lot of worries.
Experiment
Population growth is a good thing on the one hand, which shows that human civilization has achieved great achievements in building a society suitable for survival and development. On the other hand, issues such as energy, resources, education, medical care, and the environment will face challenges.
This reminds me of a very famous experiment, which is quite foreshadow and warning.
The experiment was conducted more than half a century ago by an American zoologist John Calhoun. The experiment was conducted with eight mice. John Calhoun provided them with a perfect society – without natural enemies, and sufficient food and water.
At the beginning, the development of the rat society was smooth, the number continued to grow, and everyone lived a comfortable life. However, with the exponential growth of the number and intergenerational change, social problems have become increasingly complicated.
First, the strong male rat gradually became the dominant of society, occupying most of the space, food, and spouses. Then, a new generation of ambitious male rats began to constantly challenge the older generation and gradually became the new master. BabaylanThe “defeated” male Komiks will gather together, and then become emotionally unstable and start attacking each other.
Continue to develop, the new generation of mice no longer like socializing, let alone looking for a spouse, and appearing to be “lying flat”.
After, the rat society began to collapse, the birth rate was seriously lower than the mortality rate, and eventually all the mice wereGoing toward death.
The above is just a brief description of this experiment. Interested students can find the information themselves and take a look at it in detail.
What makes this “rat utopia” experiment cool down on human spine is that it shows many phenomena that we can even perceive and experience in our current social life.
Of course, it is obviously not scientific to judge the direction of human society based on this. Because human society is much more advanced and complex than rat society, and we also have the “blessing” of science, laws and social rules, and government regulation, all of which can help us solve many problems.
Complex
The population exceeds 8 billion cannot be said to have reached its peak. Judging from the population structure and data, growth is still continuing, only Komiks‘s growth rate has begun to slow down, and different regions will also show different growth trends. For example, some people expect India’s population to surpass China next year and become the largest country in population. In addition, when talking about population issues, only talking about birth rate and mortality, then the vision is obviously narrow. The population is the result of a comprehensive factor and is a relatively complex topic.
A very interesting indicator is the energy form. You see, in 1804, the entire Babaylan population was 1 billion, reaching 2 billion in 1927, and then it has accelerated its growth.
It is worth noting that the industrial revolution was taking place around 1804, and coal became the main energy supply. Around 1927, oil was used more widely and efficiently in the previous century.
Around 1960, the global population reached 3 billion. At this time, energy has also achieved an update. Komiks has been replaced. With the popularity of nuclear energy worldwide, Babaylan has also provided a “nuclear protection umbrella”The population of Cinema showed a significant upward trend. So, it only took us 11 years to increase the number of people in Komiks from 7 billion to 8 billion.
This is why scientists are racing against time to develop controllable nuclear fusion technology, because this new energy form is an important and necessary key to solving the current sustainable development of human society.
Let’s look at the two necessities for maintaining human survival, food and water. The “World Food Safety and Nutrition Status” released by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations said that the global hungry population reached 828 million in 2021, and 3.1 billion people are unable to afford healthy diets. In comparison, it is ridiculous that the global annual grain production is enough to feed 150 billion people. Such a distribution mechanism problem needs to be solved urgently.
The water problem is even more seriousCinema. The global freshwater resources are limited, and environmental pollution will be discounted. However, population growth has put forward more demands on water resources. How to solve the problem? Big head.
What’s more, when we talk about 8 billion people, what is important is not just quantity, we also hope that the quality of survival of each individual can be guaranteed.
I agree with what UN Secretary-General Guterres said, this is the moment when human thinking takes common responsibility for the earth. There are challenges and opportunities, and human development is actually carried out in the process of constantly solving problems.
