Every second one to two people die...
At the same time twice as many children will be born
At present, 7 billion people live in the Earth..But 100 years ago, there were 2 billion of us
So ARE WE IN DANGER OF OVERPOPULATION?
At 1978 Robert Malthus described the "Population Law"

He claimed that people come more than food which would make people starve to death
The next is Paul Erlich 1968 "The Population Bomb"

He thought that we would not be able to deal with the number of people on the Earth in 1980
He also think that by the year 2000 England will disappear from the maps of the world
It was an inspiration for governments and some governments, and for example in India, forced styrylization was introduced
Looking at the dates of these books does not seem to threaten us overpopulation at the turn of many years
Scientists have dealt with this problem once and now
As a curiosity, let me add that if we set all the people on earth (7 billion) in a row we would occupy the entire area of ​​Los Angeles
