Consequences of human overpopulation and strategies of its prevention

Summary/Abstract: The sense of threat resulting from the potential overpopulation of our globe is not a new phenomenon. As early as in ancient times, philosophers raised concerns over the excessive number of people that could disturb the stability of the state. Looking at the current demographic situation in the world, the author of the paper focuses on potential consequences of human overpopulation as well as various strategies of preventing the negative consequences of this phenomenon. The conducted analyses show that the reduction of poverty is a morally uncontroversial method of overcoming difficulties related to the growing number of inhabitants of our planet.
