Population

Population is a hot topic in the world. Industrial countries lack of population, developing countries over population . It become two extremist, population can't be balanced. In my opinion, I am pessimistic about the future in terms of population. Because of two reasons. The first one is people in industrial country don't want to have baby early. They have high pressure from society to push them work and work. In industrial countries, they have good economic, high consume, strong competitors, people always consider about the money first. Hence, they have no time to look after the baby and they can't afford the huge amount of money. I suppose people will more busy in the future because of economical development, also the role of woman have changed a lot. Children is not their only life anymore, they have begun had many other interests. The second reason is population in developing country still grow up. Even many developing countries have had some policies to control the population. For example, the one child policy in China, each family just can have one children. But still have many people keep birthing. Actually, no body have right to stop a new life coming to the world, but reality is cruel. Even the situation has much better than before, but the number of population still rise.
Anyway, though balance population in the world is a tough task and need a really long process, we still should to do something to prevent a scare consequence. Every people has responsibility. Also, government play a very important role. We should work together.

I have the same views to you, Ivy.
Moreover, I don't think that immigration is a good solution. It has a lot of potential problems such as competitive society, diverse cultures...
