China is an over-populated country. What does over-population mean?

• When a country is so densely populated that it leads to environmental degradation

• When there are a high number of people in a country• When there are too many people, relative to the resources and

technology available, to maintain an adequate standard of living

Stand up. Sit down if you are an only child.

Then – Sit down if you are the first born in your family. Only those sitting would be allowed in China.

Stage 4 – why is the population increasing?

Stage 4

BR?

DR?

Page 49: How many of the countries surrounding CHINA can you name? National Anthem
Page 50: How many of the countries surrounding CHINA can you name? National Anthem

Population momentum

The tendency for population to grow despite a fall in the BR or fertility rate. It occurs because of a relatively high concentration of people in the pre-childbearing and childbearing age groups.

As these people grow older they will have children and the BR will exceed the DR until these people are elderly.

Explain how population momentum also leads to the population decreasing despite a rise in the BR.

Can you find any graphs to show where population momentum is going to be significant?

What is the impact of population momentum on population projections?

Projecting the population – why is it hard to do?

What are the different UN predictions for world population growth? Find a graph.

Why are they so different?

China: why is it hard to predict China’s population trends over the next few decades?

IB question: Explain population momentum and its impact on population projections.

Which age groups in society are dependent on other age groups?

Where does a government get its money?

Who are the dependents?

Which age group do they depend on?

Page 55: How many of the countries surrounding CHINA can you name? National Anthem

Dependency ratiosThe dependency ratio measures the working population and the dependent population.

It is the ratio of dependents (people younger than 15 or older than 64) to the working-age population (those ages 15-64).

Pros and cons of an ageing population

Page 63: How many of the countries surrounding CHINA can you name? National Anthem

Pros and cons• May have work skills needed• Burden on carers• Reduced demand for goods as often ‘savers’ not ‘spenders’• Old age homes and staff required• Are already trained• Funding of prolonged retirement needed (pensions and healthcare)• Some employers prefer this age group to younger employees• May look after grandchildren allowing the children’s parents to work

(granny culture)• New leisure facilities needed which is expensive• Provide a need for certain services and the jobs connected with

them e.g. holiday companies, health care workers (grey economy)• May lead to migration of industry overseas• Falling demand for schools and teachers• Depletion of the labour force

Youthful populations

Benefits of a youthful population

Disadvantages of a youthful population

   

Which country has the most youthful population? Why is this?

Page 67: How many of the countries surrounding CHINA can you name? National Anthem

Advantages and disadvantages

PositivesThe good things about having a youthful population are that there are lots of potential workers for the future.  If there is a natural resource or industry that needs lots of labour, it can be in bountiful supply.  This then generates tax income for the country.  The reality is that many countries that have youthful populations do not have adequate economic activities to realise this potential.

IssuesThere is high dependency in countries that have youthful populations.  This means that there are lots of children reliant on few adults to provide for their needs.  This hits the tax base of a country and also means that the few resources countries have are inadequate.  This means that vital services such as education, health and sanitation can suffer.
