Cities in Latin America can address increasing demands by investing in infrastructure and public services, such as transportation, housing, and sanitation. Implementing sustainable urban planning strategies, promoting green spaces, and fostering community involvement can help manage population growth effectively. Collaboration between government, private sector, and civil society is essential for creating inclusive and resilient cities in the region.

Australia is the continent with the biggest area of economic water scarcity, which means it lacks sufficient water resources to meet the demands of its population and economy.
One advantage of low population is less strain on resources such as water, food, and energy. This can lead to less competition, lower pollution levels, and a higher quality of life for residents. Additionally, low population areas may experience less traffic congestion and lower rates of crime.
Well, so far its raised the total population from a few million to seven billion.
Grassland has been converted for agriculture to meet the demands of a growing population, increase food production, and expand economic opportunities. However, this conversion can lead to issues such as habitat loss, soil degradation, and loss of biodiversity.

Singapore's population is rising and the total water usage is increasing. Although Singapore is recycling sewage water, it can only supply 10% of the population. Singapore is also desalinating seawater, but it is too slow to meet the demands of Singaporeans. Hence, Singapore has to buy most of the water from countries like Malaysia. If somehow, Malaysia has a grudge on Singapore, Singapore's water will not last even long.

The factors responsible for the depletion of water table are as follows:(i)Increasing populationAs a result of increasing population, all the facilities such as houses, shops, roads, offices, pavements, etc. increase to fulfil the increasing demands. This, in turn, decreases the open area for seepage of water into the ground.(ii)Increasing industriesMost of the stages of manufacturing processes in industries require water. If the number of industries increases, then the water required by them will also increase. Therefore, increase of industries contributes to the depletion of water table.(iii)Agricultural activitiesIndia is an agricultural country and agriculture is impossible without water. The water for agriculture is mainly utilised from ground water, rain water and canal water. As there is no rainfall in many places, agriculture cannot be entirely depended on rain water. Also, canal water is available in a few places only. Therefore, ground water is the main source of water for agricultural activities and this causes depletion of water table.
