Why are so many houses being built over forests and the population increasing?

Question

i wish we could do somthing other than sign petitions and wait it out.

Answer 1

The population is increasing because we're smart enough to improve our natural survival rates but not smart enough to understand or address the explosion in our population numbers that results.

As populations grows demand for land (and many other precious, limited natural resources) must grow too.

Answer 2

The overpopulation problem is primarily  caused by lack of education among women in third world countries. This overpopulation is the reason for the thoughtless draining and overexploitation of the world's natural resources, with little or no thought being given to the consequences of this destruction. I share your wish, but I don't know what to do about this either.
