Document Summary
In the table (lecture), those people say: when more than 50% of their product is industrial. Once industry takes over agriculture, the people in agriculture become absolete. Demographic transition model- describes what happens to industrial populations in society. Hunter-gatherers had high mortality and fertility=small population growth, about 0. In neolithic more food, more stable food supplies, more sedentary=beginning of population rate. When death rate drops but birth rate stays high=rise of pop growth. Early industrial period=lower death rates but also lower birth rate. They go to school, there are laws, can"t put in hard labors. Low stationary- intro of birth control tech. and others keep low birth rate almost 0 pop growth. 1-population growth-all countries have to control their populations, within their means (economically) Sex and natural fecundity is higher than what we can actually support. Creation of these new technology always creates environmental constraint. Basic research is conducted to acquire knowledge-that is the basis of academic freedom.
