Environmental Impacts of Population Growth

Pollution of Air, Water, andLand
Increasing populations generate greater volumes of waste, vehicle emissions, and industrial pollutants, which degrade air, water, and soil quality. Air pollution is a leading cause of premature mortality globally, with cities in low- and middle-income countries disproportionately affected by particulate matter and toxic gases. Water bodies suffer from contamination by untreated sewage, agricultural runoff laden with fertilizers and pesticides, and plastics, including microplastics that now pervade marine ecosystems worldwide.
