How did science and technology help in population growth?
  • 1 answers

Meghna Thapar 4 years, 5 months ago

Improved technology used for harvesting food, coupled with the technology of improved sanitation, has accelerated the growth of the human population. A larger human population increases the impact on the environment and its resources, many of which are limited and non renewable. Changes in technology modify the carrying capacity of a territory as irrigation and fertilisation in agriculture, for example, or shorter rotations between crops, which increases the number of people who can be fed from the resources of a given territory. The application of the concept of carrying capacity for the human population, which exists in a non-equilibrium, has been criticized for not successfully being able to model the processes between humans and the environment.
