Climate change is linked to world population explosion

Sally from Green Bay

Global warming which is caused by population explosion; particularly in Sahara and desert regions is now causing huge problems with millions of displaced people now living in refugee camps even whole cities like Cox bazaar and Gaza.
If we look at the statistics on the worldometer site


www.worldometers.info...

we can see that the fertility rate column shows which countries are responsible and have more than 2 children per family.
The UN world health organisation WHO needs to address this problem head on at it receives over $6 billion annually but instead of providing free contraceptives and vasectomies to these third world countries where their economies and house building and road, water, sewage and electric infra structure cannot keep up with a doubling population every 10 years it is just supplying free drugs and food which just makes the situation worse for them, as it wrecks their agricultural economies and self sufficiency with the result being the creation of refugee cities like Gaza.
