Population growth
Population grows because of different reasons for example:
 More resources like food, water, electricity.
 Better health, more medicine, vaccines.
 Better life conditions in general
How do we know that the population is growing?
We must look for the fertility rate and the life expectancy.
Fertility Rate: Reports the average of number of children that women have. By knowing
this we can know how many people will be in the future.
Life Expectancy: It gives us the number of years that the inhabitants of a territory live.
The increase in years of life shows us that we have better living conditions.
