the number of individuals
compared to the relevant
resources, such as the water
and essential nutrients they
need to survive. It can result
from an increase in births, a
decline in mortality rates, an
increase in immigration, or an
unsustainable biome and
depletion of resources.
•
The world now has 7 Billion
people living on it.
THE INFORMATION AGE
•
The Information Age (also
known as the Computer Age,
Digital Age, or New Media Age)
is a period in human history
characterized by the shift from
traditional industry that the
Industrial Revolution brought
through industrialization, to an
economy based on information
computerization.
