Using Cartoons In Classroom



Kicking the World Around

With more problems than a soap opera plot the Earth is currently plagued with issues that we should all be concerned with. But how much do you really understand about the subjects depicted in the above cartoon? Test your knowledge and explore the problems in today’s world with the resources below.

Over-Population
It has been said that the Earth will reach zero population growth somewhere between the year 2020 at 6.64 billion and 2029 at 6.90 billion. Our growth rate has been steadily declining since 1987 but not for the reasons you may think.

When do you think we will reach zero population growth?
When will the Earth become too crowded?
When will our natural resources run out?
How can we control the population of the world?
