POPULATION EXPLOSION AND LIFE STYLE CHANGES!

Population!
Human ecology is the interdisciplinary investigation into the ecology of our species. "Human ecology may be defined:

(1) from a bio-ecological standpoint as the study of man as the ecological dominant in plant and animal communities and systems;

(2) from a bio-ecological standpoint as simply another animal affecting and being affected by his physical environment;

(3) as a human being, somehow different from animal life in general, interacting with physical and modified environments in a distinctive and creative way.

Affluence It represents the average consumption of each person in the population. —As the consumption of each person increases, the total environmental impact increases as well. A common proxy for measuring consumption is through GDP per capita. While GDP per capita measures production, it is often assumed that consumption increases when production increases. GDP per capita has been rising steadily over the last few centuries and is driving up human impact in the I=PAT equation.

The Population Growth Population growth increased significantly as the Industrial Revolution gathered pace from 1700 onwards.

The last 50 years have seen a yet more rapid increase in the rate of population growth due to medical advances and substantial increases in agricultural productivity, particularly beginning in the 1960s, made by the Green Revolution.

In 2007 the United Nations Population Division projected that the world's population will likely surpass 10 billion in 2055

Technological Influence Technology and society or technology and culture refers to the cycle of mutual dependence, mutual influence, the joint production technology and society on the other (technology upon culture, and vice versa). This synergistic relationship from the beginning of humans, with the creation of simple tools and into the modern technology such as printers and computers. Academic discipline that studies the impact of science, technology, and society and vice versa is called (and can be found in) science and technology studies.

The Future of Technology and Economics Some analysts like Martin Ford, author of The Light in the Tunnel: Automation, Technology and Economic Accelerating Future, argued that as advances in information technology, robots and other forms of automation leads to significant unemployment in the machine and software to start matching and exceeding the capacity of employees to perform most routine work.

Climatic changes Climate change is a significant and lasting change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years.

It may be a change in average weather conditions or the distribution of events around that average (e.g., more or fewer extreme weather events). —Climate change may be limited to a 

specific region or may occur across the whole Earth.
