Current Event

As of Thursday, China, an already overpopulated country, is starting a policy where one couple can have more than one child. They can now have two children for every couple. CNN News reports that “To promote a balanced growth of population, China will continue to uphold the basic national policy of population control and improve its strategy on population development.” This makes me feel worried because China is already an overpopulated country and this will make it even more overpopulated if they can have more children. China is putting this policy in place because they have the oldest population with more than 400 million people over the age of 60. This affects the world because with this policy, the world population will skyrocket.
