Reduce population pressures

Reducing population pressures means reducing the amount of pressure that a certain population may put on resources, the environment and other populations in the same region or area. This can be done by improving access to education and economic opportunities, especially in rural and low-income countries. It can also involve encouraging family planning and the use of contraception, creating incentives for smaller families, or providing better resources and access to health care. Reducing population pressures can ultimately help lead to a healthier, more sustainable, and more equitable global population.
