    The table illustrate the distribution of world population in the year 1950 and 2000, with a approximation of the situation in 2050.

    It is clear from the above world population table that the distribution is risen from 2.5 billion in 1950 to 6 billion in 2000 and a estimation of 9 billion in 2050.

    it is seen from the region table of distributed world population that Africa is the only region which has increased gradually from 9% in 1950 to 13% in 2000 and will rise up till 20% in 2050. Oceania is the region with lowest distribution of less than 1% and equal to 1% . Europe and North America are decreasing gradually with 22% to 12% and till 7% , whereas 7% to 5% till 4% in years 1950, 2000 and 2050 respectively. Latina America was 6% at first in 1950 and was constant with 9% in both the years follow on. Asia has the highest compared to any year of any region with 56% in 1950, 60% in 2000 and it decreased a bit down till 59% in 2050, but it is still the top estimate compared to other regions.

    Nowadays, the increase in the number of people in the world has raised a problem of feeding this large population. So, a minority thought that genetically modified food would offer the solution for it. I am totally against this concept of GM foods as they have changed the process of yielding, using pesticides for faster yield, etc. Let further have a brief discussion about it.

    First of all, GM foods are type of foods which are grown with some chemicals and ingredients for fast yielding of crop. This may also lead to side affects in human body by consuming it. Humans can face genetic problems in further generations. Yet, some people think this is the optimal solution to feed the whole population.

    secondly, GM foods also lack nutrients as normal food has in it, because of the use of pesticides in fast growth of the crops, the nutrients get killed by those chemicals which leads to less healthy food. Thus, GM food is unhealthy and lack the vitamins and minerals which natural food provides to the human body.

    In my conclusion, I think increasing the pay and strength of farmers and providing them with good equipment for farming is the optimal solution in my opinion to feed the world population. I also think making food corrupted is not what we want to do. The increase in GM food intake can also lead to high death rate of farmers which is another issue . Thus, I totally disagree to the statement that GM foods are the solution for feeding the whole population.

    March 10, 2022 at 10:54 AM in reply to: Agree/Disagree (Reward or Punishment)

    Generally, there was a time when students were beaten and harassed by the teachers, However now a days people and parents are educated and know what to do. So, I partially think peers showcase their talents in school when they are gifted something rather than being punished. We will go into detailed further.

    firstly, to keep it crisp and clear I partially agree to the statement because my perspective is that teachers nowadays are intellectual and they aware of things what to do and what not to. If students attitude is pester towards his/her mates then it is okay to punish but not in severe way that the student gets traumatized.

    secondly, I think rewarding may also lead addiction, devaluation, and increased pressure in the students, which is never good. Unfortunately, they may loose control if they did not get the reward, this sometimes leads to chaos between peers. They are also driven to have thought of student partiality. These are some side affects of rewarding in my opinion.

    In the end, we can never say when the gifting can turn into an addiction and when punishing turns to traumatizing. Due to which, I have one thing to say is that “Everything depends on students behaviour towards their mates and teachers”. If the students behaves good he may be rewarded sometimes and same student can be punished for some mistakes in some viable ways. Therefore, I think student’s attitude towards his mates, peers and teachers defines what he gets from it at the end of the day.
