Using the online map source from National Geographic, found at MapMachine.

Answer the following questions about major ecosystems, soils, climates, and populations.

There are three zoom modes to use to answer these questions; world-view, US-view, and Southern Illinois view. You may copy this page's source to start your work if you like.

Sierra Club/Population#6

a Their first program is isolated toward the U.S.family planning were the population growth isn't seen as a problem in a nation wide poll. Since not in a social economy;health care plans don'tfill needs. In america knowlege can be taught in affect(only to some and only after a problem triggerssuch need)So to gather resources for an educated group would prove difficult since not many large masses are educated creating a many genneral masses extent nation wide.Where resources used, takes sources too.

b Planning around the world is better off working since over population affects all personally, since the need to be helped is greater in size than people who have learned to help them selves. Making any stand poiint inprobible and theoreticly on a small scale would work.
