3. The continuing rapid growth of the human population
and its impact on natural capital raises questions about
how long the human population can keep growing.
HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN THE
EARTH SUPPORT?

4. HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN THE
EARTH SUPPORT?
Natural Capital Degradation
Using some renewable resources faster
than they can be replenished
Relying mostly on polluting and climate-changing
fossil fuels

5. Population size increases through births and immigration, and
decreases through deaths and emigration.
Population change = (Births + Immigration) − (Deaths + Emigration)
WHAT FACTORS INFLUENCE
THE SIZE OF THE HUMAN
POPULATION?

6. WHAT FACTORS INFLUENCE
THE SIZE OF THE HUMAN
POPULATION?
Ho Chi Minh City is an economically developed city, so many people immigrate
to find jobs, leading to a significant increase in the population here._ Taken by
Quynh Hoa

7. The key factor that determines the
size of a human population is the
average number of children born to
the women in that population (total
fertility rate).

8. Economic factor is the cost of
raising and educating children.
Birth and fertility rates tend to be
lower in more-developed
countries, where raising children
is much more costly because they
do not enter the labor force until
they are in their late teens or
twenties.

9. WHAT ARE SOME
WAYS TO SLOW
HUMAN POPULATION
GROWTH?
We can slow human population
growth by reducing poverty through
economic development, elevating
the status of women, and
encouraging family planning.
Women are educated, can control
their fertility, earn an income of
their own, and live in societies that
do not suppress their rights.
Women today can go to school and receive a
full education like men (Huynh Man Dat

10. WHAT ARE THE
MAJOR URBAN
RESOURCE AND
ENVIRONMENTAL
PROBLEMS?
Poverty is becoming increasingly
urbanized, mostly in less-developed
countries
Homelessness and poverty are among
the worrying issues in Ho Chi Minh

11. The growth of low-density development on the edges of cities and towns—
is eliminating agricultural and wild lands around many cities. It results in a
dispersed jumble of housing developments, shopping malls, parking lots,
and office complexes that are loosely connected by multilane highways and
freeways.

HOW DOES
TRANSPORTATION
AFFECT URBAN
ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACTS?
● Cities Can Grow Outward or Upward:
- Most people living in compact cities such as Hong Kong,
China, and Tokyo, Japan, get around by walking, biking, or
using mass transit such as rail and bus systems
-In other parts of the world, a combination of plentiful land
and networks of highways have produced dispersed cities
whose residents depend on motor vehicles for most travel
such as: Canada, Australia, United States…

13. HOW DOES TRANSPORTATION
AFFECT URBAN ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACTS?
● Reducing Automobile Use Is Not Easy, but It Can Be Done
We can decrease the frequency of using automobile by:
Making drivers pay directly for most of the environmental and health costs
caused by their automobile use a user-pays approach. And these financial
will play the role for fund programs to educate people and help finance mass
transit systems, bike lanes, and sidewalks
We can implement trade-off way by using bicycle or bus instead. Bicycle
takes few resources to manufacture and no polluting. Bus is cheap and
reduce car use with no pollution.

15. HOW DOES TRANSPORTATION
AFFECT URBAN ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACTS?
● Use of Motor Vehicles Has Advantages and
Disadvantages
-Advantage: Mobility and a comfortable, convenient means of
transportation are provided by motor vehicles. Many people find
personal fulfillment in driving. Moreover, the production of
automobiles and the provision of gasoline, roads, services, and
maintenance for them underpin a large portion of the global
economy.
-Disadvantage:
A Factor that causes to increase in accident on the road every
year when people use personal transportation
Increase traffic jams and hard-to-move fast
Affect seriously to the environment because of the emissions
that are released into the air
=> These lead to cause health problems for humans.

16. HOW CAN CITIES
BECOME MORE
SUSTAINABLE
AND LIVABLE?
Walking, biking, or mass transit for
most transportation needs
Recycle or reuse most of their
wastes; to grow much of their food
Protect biodiversity by preserving
surrounding land.
An eco-city:
Smart Growth Can Promote
Environmental Sustainability
TNGo public bike service

17. Residents: walk, bike, or use low polluting mass
transit for travel.
Buildings, vehicles, and appliances: high energy-
efficiency standards.
Trees and plants:
+adapt to the local climate
+plant throughout the city
=> Provide shade, beauty, and wildlife habitats.
=> Reduce air pollution, noise, and soil erosion.
Abandoned lots and industrial sites.
Forests, grasslands, wetlands, and farms are
preserved.
Foods: from nearby organic farms, solar
greenhouses, community gardens, and small
gardens.
Parks: available to everyone
