In 2011, the population of the world reached seven billion people. The UN Population Division (2015) predicts the number could be as high as 9.7 billion by 2050; that is an extra two billion people—the same number of people who currently reside in the African and American continents combined-living on Earth using its resources to survive. This is hard to conceive. 2 Although families are getting smaller, people are living longer because medical and technical advances have lessened the impact of infectious disease. As a result, the UN's worst case scenario for 2100 is that the world population will reach almost 16 billion (UN, 2011). That is more than twice the number of people we have today. And yet already we are placing undue pressure on the Earth. The kind of pressure that, if increased, could have a profound and irreparable effect on our planet.
The first fundamental issue is water. Just 2.5% of the world's water is fresh, with much of that caught up in polar ice caps (University of Michigan, 2000). Drought and poor infrastructure mean that already today water is a scarce resource. Over seven hundred million people lack access to clean water (WHO, 2013) and one in three people in every continent do not have enough water to satisfy their daily needs (WHO, 2009). Without clean drinking water, there will be an exponential increase in the incidence of diseases such as cholera and typhoid, which will undoubtedly place an excessive strain on healthcare systems. Without water for agriculture and industry, our food and manufacturing industries will be unable to satisfy demand. Already today, 10% of people consume foods which have been irrigated using waste water full of chemicals or disease (WHO, 2009). Should water become even scarcer, this is likely to grow further.
The second critical issue is land. Current agricultural practices and the impact of pollution both contribute to soil erosion and a decreased level of soil fertility. It is estimated such poor quality land affects 1.5 billion people around the world (UNCCD, 2011). Deforestation and mining have had a devastating impact on our ecosystem and the biodiversity on which it thrives. The WWF (n.d.) estimates that we may be losing 10,000 species a year. All of this affects the number of crops that can be grown and produces greater food insecurity. How can we allow such environmental degradation to occur under our noses? 5 Another prime concern is energy. Governments, such as those in Denmark and Germany, are investing in renewable energy to eliminate their reliance on oil and to tap into resources with greater sustainability. However, the number of road vehicles reached one billion in 2010 (WardsAuto, 2011), an increase of 20 million from the previous year, and is continuing to increase due to the growing wealth in developing countries. It is therefore likely that there will be an unprecedented demand for oil over the next 50 years, pushing prices to exorbitant levels. This will make it more difficult for people to afford food, heating, and other manufactured goods, placing more people into poverty.
Overpopulation is not a problem for one country or continent; it is a problem for all of us. The UN (2012) estimates that by 2030 the world will need 50% more food, 30% more water, and 45% more energy than it does today. We must stop burying our heads in the sand and make a sustained effort to reduce population growth. We must develop a coherent strategy that will increase access to education for all. Not only is education a fundamental human right, it also facilitates a reduction in population growth. Large families tend to be prevalent in developing countries and yet when men, women, and children in these areas receive education, family sizes shrink. The UN estimates that in less developed countries where women are not educated, they have twice as many children as in those countries where they are educated. It is therefore this area in which we should invest time and money. Who can argue with free and equal education for all?
It is true that the world's population is growing, but this is not the cause of our current and future global problems. Believing this will give rise to ignorance of the real problem and the resulting irreparable damage to our planet. 2 Let me start by explaining why overpopulation is a myth. The UN Population Division regularly predicts population growth, but provides a low variant, medium variant, and high variant to factor in various likelihoods. In the 2010 revision, their high variant suggested that the world population will be almost 16 billion in 2100, but the low variant predicted it will peak at 8 billion and decrease to just over 6 billion by 2100. In most cases, it is the low variant that has come true in the past, suggesting the same will be true of their future population predictions.

Many people wonder what impacts GMO crops have on our world. “GMO” (genetically modified organism) is the common term consumers and popular media use to describe a plant, animal, or microorganism that has had its genetic material (DNA) changed using technology that generally involves the specific modification of DNA, including the transfer of specific DNA from one organism to another. Scientists often refer to this process as genetic engineering. Since the first genetically engineered crops, or GMOs, for sale to consumers were planted in the 1990s, researchers have tracked their impacts on and off the farm. For GMO crops that are resistant to insect damage, farmers can apply fewer spray pesticides to protect the crops. GMO crops that are tolerant to herbicides help farmers control weeds without damaging the crops. When farmers use these herbicide-tolerant crops they do not need to till the soil, which they normally do to get rid of weeds. This no-till planting helps to maintain soil health and lower fuel and labor use. Taken together, studies have shown positive economic and environmental impacts.The GMO papaya, called the Rainbow papaya External Link Disclaimer, is an example of a GMO crop developed to be resistant to a virus. When the ringspot virus threatened the Hawaii papaya industry and the livelihoods of Hawaiian papaya farmers, plant scientists developed the ringspot virus-resistant Rainbow papaya. The Rainbow papaya was commercially planted in 1998, and today it is grown all over Hawaii and exported to Japan.

What are logical fallacies? Name two types and explain what they are.
Answer:
Logical fallacies are errors in reasoning that are based on poor or faulty logic. Two logical fallacies are a Strawman Argument and Appeal to Ignorance
Strawman Argument: of having the impression of refuting an argument, whereas the proper idea of argument under discussion was not addressed or properly refuted.
Appeal to Ignorance: It asserts that a proposition is true because it has not yet been proven false or a proposition is false because it has not yet been proven true.
Explanation:
Some of this is quoted.
Answer:
There are two main categories of logical errors: formal fallacies and informal fallacies. "The term 'formal' refers to the structure of an argument and the branch of logic that is most concerned with structure—deductive reasoning. All formal fallacies are errors in deductive reasoning that render an argument invalid.
