What I Most Look Forward to in My Environmental Science Class
I look forward to understanding the environmental challenges humanity faces and learning how to address them. I am eager to gain as much knowledge as possible, since I have little background in environmental science, and I believe it is crucial to stay informed and make a positive impact on these issues.

What I Think This Class Will Be About
I think this class will be about understanding the environmental challenges we face today, learning how to address and prevent these problems, and exploring ways we can improve and protect our environment. I hope to gain knowledge that will help me make informed decisions and take action to have a positive impact on the world around me.

Activity 3.1 – Human Population

  Australia – More Developed Country   Life in Australia is quite comfortable, reflecting a high level of development, with many resources available to people every day .  The birth rate is relatively low , at about 11 per 1,000 people , while the death rate is 7 per 1,000 (PRB, 2024). This results in a slow population growth rate of only 0.4% per year . People live long lives, with men reaching an average of 81 years and women 85 years . Families are small, with women having approximately 1.7 children on average. Additionally, the Gross National Income (GNI) per capita is US$66,260 , showing strong economic stability and access to resources (PRB, 2024). Compared to global averages, Australia has fewer births and higher income, which is typical of more developed countries (Freedman, 2018). You can really see how life, healthcare, and opportunities are very different compared to less developed countries .   Niger – Least Developed Country   Life in Nig...
