Population is the source of Labour for the production of goods and services. It is also responsible for the consumptions of various products.
The size, structure, distribution and well-being of a population, determine its suitability for sustainable economic development. Admittedly, population growth usually leads to an ever increasing demand for basic necessities such as food, water, energy and other natural resources for population survival and development, which subsequently increases depletion of natural resources.
Moreover, the growth and distribution of the population determine the demand for location of production and place of delivery of essential social services, such as education, health, water, transport and housing. This situation requires establishing a conductive environment for ensuring sustainable socio-economic development, which requires adopting alternative sources of energy and lifestyle without compromising the wellbeing of the current and future generations.
