Question

Is education the solution to the world’s population crisis?

Answer 1

education is the foundation of every crisis... so i would say it is the solution... reasons:

if educated, a man and a woman would be noble enough not to conceive too much...

if everyone is educated, everyone can contribute to betterment of the entire country...

Answer 2

Yeah!of course,more educated people will want less population ,they know what can be the results.Don't they?

Answer 3

Hi...

Yes indeed....

However, you have to look at other factors here:

- Culture

- Religion

- Personal believes.

- Freedom

In addition, I agree with the fact: at this world that we live in, we definitely must give a second thought when the parents plan to have 4-7 kids.

Answer 4

I think he means more like s*x education - it's a well known fact that in Africa, some programs teaching safe s*x have been very successful in helping curb population growth.  A lot of countries there are very much 3rd world any, not to sound discriminatory, but a lot of the citizens simply don't have access to birth control devices or don't have the education required to associate s*x with giving their countries' population to explode, leaving them with more mouthes to feed and worsening their economic situation.

On the flip-side, a friend knows an African immigrant that moved here, and when he asked about her 10 children, she replied "I had them so the government gives me more money" - I probably sound racist by now, but experts do agree that population explosion is attributable to a lack of education/access to birth control.

Conversely, in Cuba, classed as a 3rd world country, they are well educated in safe s*x, yet the mix of being bored due to restrictions of entertainment (ban on internet for most citizens, no money for entertainment, etc) simply, well they have nothing better to do than to pursue sexual relations, and the culture is such that "swinging" isn't nearly as much a social taboo as it is in the west.  I've been an avid cuba-watcher for the last decade so I can attest that this is the case a lot, and have also read literature on overpopulation crisis.

Answer 5

How would education lower population... there is no relation between the two.
