Faculty at the SUNY college of Environmental Science and Forestry ranked overpopulation as the biggest environmental problem the world faces today. Dr. Charles A. Hall an ecologist at the university, thinks that overpopulation is "the only problem with the environment." He thinks because of overpopulation we have things like starvation, deforestation, and global warming.
Dr. Hall is exactly right, all signs point to overpopulation as being a very bad thing. The continued growth and disregard for our planet is not the negative attitude we need to have. Things need to be done before it is too late, as with the Malthusian Growth Chart we do not want to reach our carrying capacity because then the population will begin to "stable out."
