<span>The 20th century was referred by the commentators as the “Information Age” because it was the period when the great advances in technology started to contribute to the sharing of information and knowledge. By that time, it was possible to see events as they happened from any part of the world allowing sound, images, and videos to be delivered instantly by satellites and inter-continental cables.</span>

What are two major challenges resulting from the increasing global population
Rudiy27

Answer:

Lack of resources and negative impact on the Earth.

Explanation:

Increasing global population results in increased consumption of resources such as land, food, water, air, fossil fuels and minerals, and consequently, increased waste products as a result of consumption such as air and water pollutants, toxic materials and greenhouse gases.

Many people worry that unchecked population growth will eventually cause an environmental catastrophe. This is an understandable fear, and a quick look at the circumstantial evidence certainly shows that as our population has increased, the health of our environment has decreased. 

Additionally, as the world population continues to grow, the limits of essential global resources such as potable water, fertile land, forests and fisheries are becoming more obvious. On the whole, more people use more resources and create more waste.

Hope this helps!

How did the New Deal programs differ from president Hoover's attempt tom combat the depression?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

The difference is that Roosevelt was ready to do more to solve the problems brought about by the Great Depression while Hoover was more hesitant to let government intervene.  The programs he launched such as the National Credit Corporation, the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, and the Emergency Relief and Construction Act <span>came late to do any good.  Upon assuming office, Roosevelt quickly launched various programs to solve the problems.  In the end, Roosevelt was right in his approach of Government intervention because at the time,  people needed support to uplift their lives.</span>
