Week 3 Dialogue: Human Population Growth

This week your Discussion Board will center on human population growth. I want you to find the K value, i.e., the carrying capacity, of earth for humans. Then I want you to choose some interesting aspects of this topic related to the K value to write about, e.g., Do humans exhibit a typical growth curve? Where are we on the growth curve, i.e. how close are we to the K value? Is there anything we can do about it? What are some things we might do now to slow down the advance into the death phase? What were some of the causes of death phase in segments of the human population in the past?
