High Growth rates
By: Abdulrahman Metwaly
Environmental impacts on high growth rates
In a country, where the environment is livable, and the resources are present, a country will tend to have a high growth rate. this is because there is no barrier stopping the population from growing. It's no surprise that a population will continues to grow, if the limits of essential global resources such as potable water, fertile land, forests and fisheries are available in a country. the world highest population growth rate country is Papua New Guinea. this is becuase the country is rich of resources such as water, food. therefore the civilians of the country have access to various resources, which causes a easy and rapid families growth
How does education affect high growth rates
In a country, where education is not available and is on a low level, those countries will tend to have a high growth rate. this is because civilians of that country are not educated on when to raise a family or how to raise a family. As i researched, a country like Iraq has a high growth rate. this is because that countries' education inst at a high level. therefore civilians do not know if its ethical or not to have big families. also, Iraqian families tend to contain about 6 or 7 members. which is a huge amount as they were not educated to look forward to the future before performing any actions. As seen on the diagram on the left
hand side, the two countries Iraq and Niger, have a high growth rates as there education levels are very poor. while Bulgaria, which is a first world country with good education has a low growth rate. this directly shows that education directly impacts high growth rates.
How does economy contribute to high growth rates
As its obvious, most African countries have very high growth rates. but there economy levels are low. how can economy affect high growth rates? In African countries, to raise a child, it does not require a lot of money. on the other hand, a country like Canada issues a fund on each child born. these funds are generally high which scares people and makes them not want to have a child. therefore Canada does not have such a high growth rate. African countries do not issue major fund on each child born. therefore each family consists of 7 or 8 members as its very cheap to build a family. Many countries that have such low economic rates, have such high growth rates. As seen in the three pictures below. the top 6 highest growth rates, 3 of those countries have low economic rates which defines why those countries have a high growth rates. Afghanistan, Angola and Algeria all have a medium to low economic levels which shows that as a country decreases it's economic rate, a countrie's growth rate will increase
Afghanistan's Growth rate
low economic rate, which shows a high growth rate
Angola's Growth rate
Economic rates are very low, which shows a rapid and huge growth rate
Algeria Growth rate
As seen in the diagram, year by year the population increases for Algeria, this is because Algeria just went through a crisis and it's not stable. As economic rates decrease every year, the growth rates increase.
