    Pollution
    What % of the earth is livable?
    We have learned that land covers about
    30% of the earth. About half of this land
    is not useable, so how much of the
    earth’s land is usable?

    What are some reasons why land might


    not be unusable?
    Population Density
    • The AVERAGE number of people living in
    a square mile or kilometer.

    People / Total land area = Population Density

    * It’s true…you can’t escape math!


    Population Density
    • There are about 9 million people living in
    Bolivia.
    • There are about 1 million square
    kilometers of land in Bolivia.

    • Calculate the population density of Bolivia


    Population Density of Bolivia

    9 / 1 = about 9 people per kilometer

    * Statistics found at www.cia.gov, so they’ve changed a bit since your book’s publication.
    Population Density
    • There are about 10 million people in the
    Dominican Republic
    • There are about 48 thousand square
    kilometers of land in the Dominican
    Republic.

    What is the population density of the


    Dominican Republic?
    Population Density of the Dominican Republic

    10,000,000 / 50,000 = about 202 people


    per square kilometer!
    Population Density
    • What does the following mean?

    The Dominican Republic has a greater


    population density than Bolivia?
    Population Density
    Are people really evenly distributed
    throughout a country?

    Why? Why not?


    Population Movement
    • Movement to cities - urbanization.

    • Why do people move to cities?


    Population Movement
    • 1/2 of the world’s population lives in
    cities!
    • Urban sprawl is created as cities grow
    larger and their suburbs expand outward.
    Emigration vs. Immigration

    People emigrate from one country and


    immigrate to another…
    Refugee
    • A refugee has fled to another country to
    escape persecution or disaster.
