How does Overpopulation affects our lives today ??
Mnenie [13.5K]

No Clean Water: We may live on a water planet, but 97.5% of that water is ocean and other undrinkable salt-filled sources. Only 2.5% of the water on this planet is fresh, and of that, 1% is either too polluted to be consumed or entirely unreachable. Much of it remains frozen in the form of polar ice caps. All told, less than 1% of the planet’s freshwater resources are available for consumption.

Lower Life Expectancy: Thanks to medical intervention, human beings can live to be up to 100 years old — as long as they live in developed countries where they have access to that medical care. One study, done by researchers at Harvard, found that the majority of population increases over the next 40 years or so will be in less developed countries.

Climate Change: We’ve been seeing the results of climate change firsthand in the dramatic weather patterns of 2017 — multiple category five hurricanes, dramatic wildfires and floods, and other atypical weather patterns that are threatening both lives and property.

What is the general relationship between a star's mass and its lifetime?
iren2701 [21]
<span>Larger stars burn through their Hydrogen reserves faster, fusing Hydrogen into heavier Helium.

Also, to maintain their phenomenal heat, they have to do this to maintain internal pressure and therefore the fusion that powers them, they have to burn quickly to replace the excess heat they radiate away into outer space.

Currently our sun radiates away 4 Million Tonnes of mass every second, that only amounts to a miserly 0.0000001% of its entire mass. Imagine how much mass larger and larger stars lose every second.

The smallest stars, born at the red dwarf level can burn for trillions of years (at closest estimate). Compared with the Supergiant's, the big boys who were born in abundance during the birth of the universe burn out and explode in supernovae after only around 200 Million years. A whisper compared to the life of our Sun which is estimated to run out of fuel after at the ripe of age of 10 billion years.</span><span> </span>
