Energy is most consumed product in the World (by human now). As the world population increases to 9 billion by 2050 (predicted by scientists), we will need when not 50% or more energy to keep the World running. 80% of these energy comes from burning fossil fuel; of oil, of coal and 1/5 of natural gas. And the rest comes from other recourses (nuclear, hydroelectric and a tiny fraction of: Wind, Solar and Geothermal). In order to get the energy we have to burn the fossil fuel, by burning fossil fuel, we emit greenhouse gases into the air causing the greenhouse effect and other issue (such as promoting climate change).

Every second a baby is born and with every new born comes just a little more demand. Every 8 hours 200,000 people (as much as a full football stadium) are added to the World every single day. By this rate, scientists have calculated that our population will bust up to 9 billion in sooner than by 2050. And as we know land is limited. Were already cutting forests and even big rainforests down to achieve land which is causing deforestation (also major environmental issue). Logging the forest destroys varies habitats of animals, that means they are

(By Provision its meant Food and Water consumption) As our population grows limitless, our demand and consumption of water and food therefore increases. Already it is difficult to get water and especially. But the Environmental issue isnt much in how to get food/drink, it is in the processing the drinks and food we eat. Producing food can take up hundreds processes to make the product or even thousands of processes to make the product. In fact dirty water costs more than clean water because it has to be cleaned in order to use it (takes lots of processing and money), also fizzy and

We all know that our natural resources are limited and are mostly nonrenewable. We consume most of the natural Resources such as (majorly): Biotic Resources , Abiotic Resources. Biotic Resourcesare materials that are obtained from the living and organic material, such as forests, animals, birds, and fish. Fossil fuels such as coal and petroleum are also biotic natural recourses.

Abiotic Resources-

are those that come from non-living, non-organic material. Examples of Abiotic resources include land, fresh water, air and heavy metals including ores such as gold, iron and other metals. The issue is to get these resources we damage and destroy a lot of the environment just to fulfil our needs and demands which leads to issues like

Demand is rising as the population grows.

To resolve this Environmental issue and to sustain our Environment we have to find a solution , but at the moment we are also worried about big Global issue that we are running out of fossil fuel (burning fossil fuel is the cheapest way of 4/23/12 getting a lot energy) and we have

The most environmental firendly resource of producing energy is Renewable Energy its clean and compact but its only about a fraction being used. But the problem is that its expensive and cant produce as much energy as fossil fuels do, thats why they dont use and also it is a source that isnt always there e.g. Solar Power only works when sun shines, Wind power only works when wind is there.

By Decreasing our consumpion we could save about 10% or more of the worlds ernergy consumption and we dont have to consume materials, but still keeping in mind that we cut millions of Trees to produce furniture and paper (which most of people waste). Also Decereasing our demand could save the rainforest from deforestation and the environment by only using 4/23/12 that much to fulfill our needs so that

Summary
We human consume a lot, which damages the Environment in various ways. And by the rate the human population is growing, we will need more than 50% of the Energy we use today. We have found two ways of doing that: increasing our energy supply or Decreasing 4/23/12 the Consumption and Demand.
