Conclusions
From the Paper
"The amazing economic development in countries such as Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore over the past fifty years has been accompanied by an intense interest on the part of governments in those nations in fertility issues. The nations experienced rapid population growth for much of the last century, but as much of that growth was driven by rapidly improved medical care and other aspects of development that worked to prolong life. The governments therefore implemented education policies designed to encourage people to wait until later in life to marry and to have fewer children. Such family planning worked to slow the fertility rates so that the population growths were slowed and eventually leveled. In other nations such as Vietnam and Laos, where economic development and education did not go hand in hand as expansively and rapidly, the population growth rates seem to have taken longer. This suggests that economic development can work to increase population, but that the growth can be curbed if it is coupled with social and education development, so that modernization is treated as a comprehensive program (Jones)."

U.S. Population Control, 2006.
This paper argues against the institution of population control in the United States.

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper argues that there are three very valid reasons why the U.S. should not engage in any activity that limits population: (1) The world's growth rate is slowing and there is a vast difference between "population control" and family planning; (2) the idea of population control may be racially and ethnically motivated and, (3) more morally important, the government has absolutely no right to control conception or birth much as Communist China has done in its two-children family regulations. The author questions who would be selected or appointed to head such a Population Control mandate were it ever to come to pass and who would do the appointing? The paper supports population protection and education but never population control.
From the Paper
"In a now infamous and declassified document issued under the signature of Henry Kissinger in 1974, he sent a memorandum to the Secretaries of Defense, Agriculture, the Director of the CIA, the Deputy Secretary of State and the Administrator for the Agency for International Development, stating that "The President has directed a study of the impact of world population growth on U.S./ Security and overseas interests..." It is the first known document that spells out the fear of some American politicians for world over-population, not so much what it would do to those nations, but how over-population might harm the "interests" of America."

Abstract
This paper discusses how population growth presents one of the largest challenges to the environment of any of the potential problems human beings pose towards nature. It looks at how the problem of over-population presents itself in a variety of different forms such as air pollution, chemical dumping and the greenhouse effect. It argues that we must work together as a global community and as nations individually to promote positive methods of producing responsible population stabilization, and in some cases negative population growth.

Introduction
The Problems of Population Growth
Global Solutions for Population Growth
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Population growth must be considered as an exponential increase rather than a linear increase. A liner increase is when a number is added to the previous number to create a larger number. Exponential increase multiplies instead of adding the new number to the previous number. Population growth moves in this pattern because of the natural reproduction of families. In traditional nuclear families with two and a half kids the growth should be about the same. However, if a couple has eight children, which is not totally unreasonable, the population of that family is now four times as large. In this way, population increases geometrically or exponentially.

The Rapid Population Debate, 2006.
This essay summarizes in the debates between population "pessimists" and "optimists" over the last 200 years, including the main causes and consequences of population growth in Asia and Africa over the last 500 years.

Abstract
This paper details the steady increase in the world's population in the last 100 years and explains how the advancement of modern medicine has allowed people to survive longer with cheaper, effective treatment. It explains that it is not just the West who can enjoy these benefits, many poorer countries have improved and more accessible healthcare, resulting in longer lifespan and improved reproduction.
From the Paper
"This steady population growth has dramatic consequences on the world, some good, and some bad. The benefits of having more people on the planet means that there is a greater pool of labour, and we can see that it benefits big companies such as Nike who set up sweat shops in countries in Asia and Africa and who exploit the large number of unemployed people. But one of the biggest criticisms of having a large population is the environmental impact it has on the planet, having more people in the world leads to more demand of resources, some of which are depleting rapidly."

The African Hunting Dog, 2006.
An overview of the characteristics of the Cape hunting dog, also known as the African hunting dog.
2,640 words (approx. 10.6 pages), 4 sources, MLA, AU$ 115.95

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The hunting strategies of the African wild dog were behavior once shrouded in inaccurate myth. The dogs were formerly considered among the roughest and meanest species on the African savanna and bushland. The paper shows that they were noted for driving out all other species in their regions, for mutilating their victims beyond recognition, as well as for consuming their own kind who had fallen prey to illness or exhaustion. The paper shows, however, that researchers have recently taken a closer look at the animals' morphological, physiological and adaptive characteristics, their methods of locating prey, as well as their prey-capture techniques and food allocation practices. New studies have presented a wildly different version of the African wild dog.
From the Paper
"According to recent research, the prime habitat for wild dogs is not the open, grassy plains but rather the woodland-savanna areas which support larger populations of prey due to the interspersion of seasonally-flooded grasslands in these areas. The animals' diet consists largely of impala (80-85%), with the remaining percentage distributed among red lechwe, reedbuck, steenbok (antelope types), and the juveniles of kudu, buffalo, tsessebe, zebra and wildebeest. Most of these animals are nearly ten times the weight of the average hunting dog. They are also common in the regions where wild dogs exist, so that locating their prey is not often difficult."

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses how China has confronted the issue of population growth. The writer gives a background to the economy and history of China, explaining that for four decades China engaged in population control planning. The connection is made between the population control and equilibrium in the economy. The author continues by examining economic growth rates and population growth, through demographic statistics. Finally, the paper highlights what policies the government have enacted or planned to. One example is the one child policy. In conclusion, the paper maintains that the population policies of China stem from economic reasons and that it is essential that they continue in order to sustain its future.
From the Paper
"At the time of the Republic of China?s founding, the country had a population of 541.67 million in 1949 [Countries of the World, 01-01-1991]. Today, according to the World Bank report [2002], China?s population is estimated at 1,261.1 million people.
What made China the focus of the world community is the fact that the country had been struggling for decades to eradicate a multitude of social economic ills, including high illiteracy, water and sewage problems, financial market downturns, inaccessibility to funds for social development as well as no means of economic development in terms of empowerment of its people. As a result of this, the country not only faced low GDP, income and employment level but it was also facing population growth".

Population Distribution, 2005.
A discussion and analysis of population distribution in the United States.
1,025 words (approx. 4.1 pages), 1 source, MLA, AU$ 53.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses several aspects of the United States population distribution and how the population may change in the next five to ten years. It explains that the population distribution in the U.S. is an interesting mix, with most people living in the urban centers of the nation, but enough still live in the heartland and western areas to make the population diverse and spread out.
From the Paper
"The population of the United States in mid-2004 was 293,633,000. The population distribution of the United States, in general terms, is located mainly along the coastlines, with the interior of the country being less populated than the East, West, and Gulf Coasts. In fact, the Population Research Bureau notes, "More than half the U.S. population lives within 50 miles of a coastal shoreline" (Editors). This also holds true with the Great Lakes region and along the Mississippi River. Population centers such as Detroit and Chicago are located along the coastlines of the Great Lakes, and centers such as Saint Louis are located along the Mississippi. Generally, distribution is heaviest East of the Mississippi, and then there is a wider gap until reaching the West Coast and desert southwest. While the population density of the U.S. is only 79 people per square mile, this statistic does not give an adequate picture of the population distribution, because there is so much of the country that is inhabitable because of terrain, inhospitality, or bodies of water. In addition, 79 percent of American people live in urban centers, which means only 21 percent live in the rural areas of the country."

Abstract
In this article, the writer focuses on the effect the gay and lesbian population has had on hotel management and marketing. By reviewing and analyzing various articles and reports on this topic, the writer demonstrates why the gay and lesbian population is a heavily marketed group within the travel industry. Likewise, the writer reviews why a hotel manager should market to the gay and lesbian traveling population. Finally, the paper also touches briefly on how effective marketing to this population can occur.
Outline:
Introduction
What Gay and Lesbian Travelers Want in a Hotel
Why Market to Gay and Lesbian Travelers?
How to Market to the Gay and Lesbian Population
What Others are Doing
From the Paper
"One of the most significant developments in the travel industry, particularly as it applies to hotel management and marketing, is the recent trend aimed at attracting gay and lesbian clients. This trend developed as marketing research showed that gay and lesbian people are more likely to travel, and have more disposable income to spend when traveling, than the general population does. Thus, this group of individuals, who for decades was regarded as a niche travel population that only gay or lesbian-only travel marketing niche catered to, is now a mainstream market within the travel industry as a whole."

Abstract
A look at the important role that hunting played for the Medieval society. The author discusses the history and origins of hunting and looks at the meaning that hunting held for the Medieval aristocrat as a sign of power wealth and nobility, as a reflection of their combat prowess and as a way to prove themselves before their fellow men.
From the Paper
"When one considers the qualities that were necessary for the medieval aristocracy, hunting is the most important of these. The hunt was a way for the aristocrat to not only enjoy himself but also to prove his manhood and hone his combat prowess. The hunt become a more and more important factor of the life of the aristocrat until you have the king, like William Rufus, who devotes his entire life to hunting at the expense of the kingdom. Hunting originally began as a simple means to procure food, but the pomp and circumstance that grew around it, as is still present today with the fox hunts, formalised it into a ritual and a form of entertainment. As the nobility became more and more powerful and rich they had fewer and fewer responsibilities. This becomes evident in England, whenever a period of peace comes, the nobility, bored with their lack of action, turn to hunting as a means of escape and enjoyment, much as one does today with televised sporting events."

Seal Hunting, 2006.
Presents three main arguments against seal hunting.
2,250 words (approx. 9.0 pages), 5 sources, AU$ 129.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper present an argument against seal hunting, relying on three main points: seal hunting is inhumane, government regulation is lacking, and there isn't much information surrounding the issue. The author of this paper argues that the practice of seal hunting should be discontinued until policy can be better enforced and there is more provable data regarding pain to seals, economic costs of seal hunting, etc.
From the Paper
"As I hinted in my introduction, there is much information surrounding the debate over seal hunting. On almost any point, for or against, there is a competing claim with competing evidence. In acknowledging this, I do not intend to cede that the evidence offered in this section is chosen at random or for convenience. I simply recognize that scientific fact is lacking from the debate. Admitting this, I would argue the following points: 1. Some in the fishing industry have argued that the number of cods is decreasing due to seals hunting cods."

Abstract
This paper studies the effect of female literacy on population growth. Using the 2SLS model, this paper establishes a negative relationship between the two. A comparative analysis of the two states of India, Bihar and Kerala, reveals the same trend. However, the paper brings out the subtle differences in the social ethos of these states. The paper distinctly establishes the dominant role of female literacy in population control and recommends suitable priorities to public policy planners

From the Paper
"The past decade (1991-2001) has been a watershed for India in more ways than one. While this decade saw the boldest economic reforms in India?s history making it possible to emerge from the Hindu Rate of Growth, the decade also witnessed the sharpest decline in population growth (2.52% points, See Chart 1) coupled with the sharpest increase in female literacy (14.87% points) since Independence. A somewhat similar feat was achieved by the Indian State of Bihar for the period 1991-1997 where it registered a high literacy growth with the sharpest expected decadal decline in population growth (1.68% points) . Unfortunately, after 1997, unprecedented political instability led to the State slipping on these indices so much so that it finally registered a dismal performance on both the fronts of female literacy (lowest in the country) and population growth ( 2.8%, which is higher than the national average of 2.1%) for the entire decade (1991-2001) taken as a whole. An exceedingly good performance in this area (both at the national level and the State level) has prompted me to explore whether literacy (particularly female literacy) carries a more direct bearing on population control than other methods such as mass media campaigns, family planning, and sterilization."

Hound Hunting, 2004.
An analysis of whether hound hunting should be made illegal.
2,925 words (approx. 11.7 pages), 17 sources, MLA, AU$ 126.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses the issue of hound hunting and questions whether the practice should be outlawed. The paper contends that one would scarcely want to discourage hound hunting if the result would be an increase in cruelty, particularly if it means that animals that might otherwise escape will instead be poisoned and trapped and suffer from the genetic loss of their most valued members. The paper examines whether it is better for generations of dogs to live very short, but relatively happy lives, or for the entire breed to suffer massive casualties and prevent future dogs from being born to such lives. The paper claims that a radical societal change is needed in general before a good answer can be given to this question, for as a society we must decide the role of animals.
Outline
Introduction
Reasons why Hound Hunting Should be Illegal
Reasons not to Make Hound Hunting Illegal
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Great Britain recently banned hunting with hounds, much to the chagrin of a significant portion of the population who insisted that fox-hunting was a fundamental part of their culture. Badger and stag hunting had already been outlawed. (Jones) Here in America, dog hunting remains legal in all states, and sport dogs are commonly used to hunt bear, deer, hogs, coons, birds, and other prey. Indeed, even though the "sport" of dog fighting has become illegal across the country and is considered a felony in most states, in many states it is still legal to use dogs to fight and kill pigs in a so-called "rodeo." Much the same training is put into preparing dogs for hog baiting and hog hunting as for dog fighting, which also makes prosecution of dog fighting more difficult."

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper discusses how the exponential population growth on our planet is depleting our finite resources of land, water and fuel. The paper asserts that we are utilizing these three resources at unsustainable levels, as a result of population growth and human disconnect from the earth.
Outline:
Introduction
Land Depletion, Resources and Sprawl
Population and Water
Conclusion
From the Paper
"The world population has increased exponentially over the last 100 years, as technology and development outstrip the ability of the fragile planet to absorb the massive influx of polluting and needy people. To survive people must have land, water and fuel and yet, upon the earth such elements are finite, unless technology meets the demand for sustainable or human created sources of these elements."
