överbefolkad
Överbefolkad, which translates to "overpopulated" in English, refers to a situation where a region or country has a population that exceeds the carrying capacity of its resources. This can lead to various issues such as resource depletion, environmental degradation, and increased pressure on infrastructure and services. Overpopulation can be caused by a high birth rate, low death rate, or immigration. It is a significant concern in many parts of the world, particularly in densely populated countries like China, India, and many European nations. The term is often used in discussions about sustainability, urban planning, and global resource management. Addressing overpopulation typically involves strategies such as family planning, improving living conditions, and promoting sustainable development.
