In the United States a baby is born every eight seconds. China, which is the most populated country in the world, has a little over 5% of the world’s population (U.S. and World Population Clock, 2015).Growing population has been a problem for a number of years now. Many of the countries with high population growth rates are developing or poor countries. In her article Jennifer Weeks tells us, ”The world 's population, now about 7.2 billion people, could rise to nearly 11 billion or more by 2100, according to some estimates, with nearly all the growth in developing countries” (Global Population Growth, 2015). These countries cannot produce enough food to support their population and rely on developed countries to supply them with food. Because a rapidly growing population can have very negatives effects on a developing country, developed countries should help control the population and supply them with modern farming
