Countries with anti-natalist policies are China, India, and Uzbekistan.
Explanation:
The countries can roughly be divided into having pro-natalist or anti-natalist policies. The decision as to which of these two policies is implement depends on the area available, population size, increase or decrease rates, and available resources. Some countries have been swinging between the two policies, setting one for a decade and than turning to the other for a decade, returning to the previous one, and again to the other one, like in the case of Iran.
Some countries that have anti-natalist policies are:
China has such policy for several decades now. Initially it was only one child per family that was allowed, and only few years ago it was allowed for two children by family. The reason for this was the rapid increase of the already huge population and the fear that it will lead to economic and social collapse on the long run. The same problem has been the case in India as well. Even though there are policies that are anti-natalist, the people don't seem to apply to them, though the birthrates have been steadily dropping recently due to the development and gradual increase of the standard of living. Uzbekistan, on the other hand, is castrating the women after they have two children. The reason for this is that the country doesn't have enough resources so they desperately are trying to not become overpopulated and collapse.
False. Mapping was hugely used in directing ships for trade, hence the creation of the Mercator projection. Today, maps are used for locating us in cities and everywhere else.
One of the biggest environmental problems of sub-Saharan Africa is the deforestation. In order to produce food, or make some profit, the majority of the people tend to destroy the forests. This is usually done with the clear cutting or slash-and-burn methods. While this works on the short run, usually 3-4 years, after that short period the land can not be used as it has been severely degraded and eroded. In order to be able to continue producing food, the people continue to do the same, living behind large areas of barren and destroyed land. The deforestation also causes desertification, which makes the land unusable for generations to come or more, except if smart policies are not undertaken. The environment is totally destroyed as well, with numerous plant and animal species losing their habitats or being directly destroyed, putting them on the endangered list.
